I am writing this post to inform subcsribers of this list of the problems I
have seen in this service. The number one problem being off subject discussion
I understand that the name of this is cypherpunks, but why not put a little
more cypher and a lot less punk. I can understand how it can all get started
One person posts some intelligent information. Then another replys dissagreeing
with the original sender. Then the sender takes it personally, and feels a need
to flame the other. There is nothing wrong with flaming a bit, but for the
name-sake of this mailer, please post more realevent (or at least interesting)
information. Logos take a chill pill. You aren't a policeman. Tim May, do
you have anything on subject to discuss?
Allright, enough about that.
I have a heard of a new encryption style called something like "Zone-redundant"
and I was hoping if someone had any information on it? I think it is based on
encrypting random pieces of encrypted data, but since I have very VERY little
knowledge of the subject (hoping to learn a little from this mailer) I'm not
sure. Does anyone have more information on the subject?

p.s. Logos, Tim May nothing personal, I hope.

I've initiated more threads on crypto-related and politico-crypto topics
than nearly anyone else. If you haven't seen them, you've been on the list
too short a time to be making such pronouncements as you've just made.

And don't take it personally that "jc105558@spruce.hsu.edu" is now in my
kill file.
Just say "No" to "Big Brother Inside"
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines, I know that that ain't allowed.
