John Gilmore on the Radio!

Today at lunchtime in the Eastern Time Zone, the radio show Real 
Computing with John C. Dvorak had John Gilmore as a guest, and Dvorak 
asked several questions about the US federal case against Phil 
Zimmerman.  Surprising how little Dvorak knew about the issues, 
especially considering he's a pretty bright guy and up-to-speed with the 
technology.  He asked JG [paraphrasing] - now that the government case 
against PRZ is dropped, what else is the Electronic Frontier Foundation 
(of which Gilmore is a board member) taking up as its next 'cause'?

The implication was that the 'crypto thing' is settled and we can move on
to other issues.

This may have been a rebroadcast of an earlier show, I don't know.

Gilmore was referred to by Dvorak as the head of the cypherpunks a few 
times.

Did he mention any other body parts?

(Hey, shouldn't there be a SF Bay Area cpunks meeting tomorrow? I'm
otherwise engaged, but I'd have expected to see an announcement of what I'm
missing.)

C'punks,

Cypherpunks operate on Parisian time.  Every August many of us 
flee the Bay Area or are too sluggish to go to meetings.  (Now
parties are usually a different matter.)
