I noticed in the Sat Pirate article in the latest Wired (which I finally read this evening), there is a mention of the Cypherpunks in connection to PGP and opposition to the creation of a Police State. Page 128, I think. -- Al Billings mimir@io.com http://io.com/user/mimir/asatru.html Nerd-Alberich Admin for Troth - The Asatru E-mail List Lord of the Nerd-Alfar Sysop of The Sacred Grove - (206)322-5450 Poetic-Terrorist Lodge-Master, Friends of Loki Society

Page 128, I think. Who cares. A mention of WIRED in cypherpunks is far more noteworthy. The lag time inherent in magazine production, particularly a magazine dealing with the expansion of cyberspace, is oxymoronic. Here, at least there is immediacy combined with no whit of concern for the expectations of readership. Wired isn't even worth reading any more. BB

There are some people here interested in media references to the Cypherpunks. If you aren't, that's your business.
