in reference to rational anarchy:
 
    What would happen if instead of a ray-gun it was something moe along 
the line of a communication, that was unjammable, and "unbreakable"  Would 
this be more conductive to anarchy than a weapon would be?  Or perhaps 
instead of a weapon it was the ability to completely protect oneself, or 
isolate onself?  I would think that that would be more productive thana 
weapon.
 
 
CIA/NSA/HUMINT/COMINT:  NO I do not know what a STU-phone is, I have never 
had much interest in this field, tho now it has been piqued.
The thing that worries me more than their inability to speak farsi, is 
their ability to maintain records of all transactions over a particular 
sum 15000 I believe, and their plans to track even lesser transactions in 
the near future.  Strictly from an internal perspective this is more of t 
threat than the NSA's ability ot break cypher XYZ etc...  Since this does 
not require any huge amount of computer power, relatively speaking,m and 
it is already in place and is accepted by our citizens.  No need to spy on 
us when they czn get all the info they need without a warrant, simply thru 
good cross-referencing.
 
 
h/p world:  I find it hard to believe that you recieved that breaker from 
the place you said, but oh well.  And as for the otehr flammage, guess I 
deserved that considering the tone of my post.  NO im not a r0dent either, 
im a \/\/ 4 3 r z pup actually, with full certification and all, and even 
papers saying im an ASCII currier.  You don't believe me?  Look here it 
says i'm in k-rad group #8876.
