GDC}> JB>     stop & read the electronic mail security act of 1986
GDC}> JB>     sometime.  and then read the subsequent legislation
GDC}>Is it available in ascii?
    Its on my board, and i forget which board i swiped it
    from.
GDC}>This is true only to the extent that SOME people are
GDC}>incourage to bullshit BBS and other free speech avenues.
    True, unfortunatly
GDC}>Some people, on the other hand, could loose their jobs if
GDC}>their governmental employees found out they had any occult
GDC}>interest what-so-ever.
    & some government employees are paid a bonus for the
    "attraction" to the occult.
GDC}>Where is (404)?
              Atlanta GA
GDC}>Again, like I mentioned to Phil, how do THEY know YOU are
GDC}>not some government funded BBS who wants names and
GDC}>addresses.  The trust thing has to go both ways.
    True, the trust goes both ways.  But then, unlike most
    boards here, i don't require people to mail in copies of
    their drivers licence.  Nor do i request social security
    numbers << like certain boards require  >>.  As i stated
    the only things i ask are name, phone number, address &
    magickal interests.  Now, if i really had the energy, i
    could verify that they actually lived where they said
    they did, and the phone number given is their actual
    phone number.  I could then go on to verify &/or obtain
    employment data etc. But doing that is a lot of hassle
    for me.
    Actually, i have been considering throwing out the
    request for their address.  Given a person's phone
    number, i can get the rest of the info easilly enough,
    if i realy find i need it.
GDC}>I agree that we need more truth and integrety in society.
GDC}>It is the mistrust perpetuated by 'the powers that be' that
GDC}>sometimes makes it difficult to tell the truth in the first
GDC}>place.
    Actually, i suspect the loss of integrity began when
    people were first paid to lie.  & if one's job is to
    tell lies, or incomplete truths, the loss of truth and
    integrity is that much more towards being an absolute
    universal.
