The sort of timing you are speaking of is not possible through internet, or even by phone.
If you know "for a fact" how awful a war is, then you should know this too. Unless you got your "experience" by watching CNN.
The other stuff you state, trying to keep info from going into Yugoslavia, is very valid and is probably the main reason for attempted internet blocking of any sort.
Well, I am inclined to think he broke more than one law also and the things that I would vote to convict for would have gotten him a few months, tops.
The only problem is, you need a trial to earn the badge of criminal. The feds would do well to persue a course of either having a trial or dropping a case, rather than using "pre-trial custody" to impose a multi-year sentence to punish people that have not even been tried yet.
One of the things Kevin is accused of is the posession of credit card numbers, from a wide open Netcom file, obtained in exactly the same way as the LA Times recently obtained credit card numbers from e-merchants.
I do not see the DoJ (nor any of you Kevin bashers) crawling all over the Times for doing one of the things Kevin is being condemned for doing. I do read a lot about how the merchants were wrong for being careless. Where are the pyres for Sun, Netcom, etc.?
Is the LA Times, or it's employees going to be charged with a crime or forced to pay for new firewall systems and system modifications for the merchant's that did not bother to use their software properly? Sure doesn't sound like it.
So much for equal protection, enforcement, or whatever that BS was from US Government class.
When YOU are vagely accused, then prohibited from reviewing the evidence, as well as the charges, against YOU (no matter how stupid your actions, no matter if it was really YOU in the first place), don't come crying to us.
Fortunately, for YOU, we will still support YOUR rights, no matter how little YOU view the rights of others.

Then go to one of the demonstrations on June 4th and speak to people in person.

So, I guess "Equal Protection Under the Law" is per dollar anount and not per individual?

That is what the Chinese get for missing a bribe payment.
Anybody have any info on this, like the URL for the often mentioned, never revealed, website?
If Geocities pulled it, anybody have a cached copy?

Odd that SUN gives away source code worth $80 mil., or sells it for $100.
Sort of like that L0Pht trial, with a $14.xx manual being valued at some astronomical amount, just to make the case "worthwhile".
Make sure to visit a Kevin demonstration near you, on June 4th. http://www.2600.com
Long time for DVD on PM? I don't think so!
Saw a copy of the 6+ hour Director's Cut on DVD this weekend, running on a nifty notebook in a major US city.
Best Buy had already dropped the price, $64.99
Going to try to ge a refund from the before sale price I paid yesterday.
At the Best Buy in Reston VA, the Official Redhat 6.0 was $74.99. Even after tax, it cost less to get it here than to have it shipped.
Can't wait for Powertools.
I did send this to Slashdot as news, but the trained mammals must have missed the post.
