Four of you have so far contacted me about the Watch List, asking "out of curiousity" if they are on the list or if the list is available online someplace. (One of the four got the message from a forwarding by a list member here. I really wish you, "E.L.," would not forward messages to unrelated lists.) But I need a fifth name. HomeSec promised my own name would be removed if I provided the name of _five_ (5) other suspects. And I need to get off that list by April 1st, which has been designated Roundup Day. --Tim May "To those who scare peace-loving people with phantoms of lost liberty, my message is this: Your tactics only aid terrorists." --John Ashcroft, U.S. Attorney General --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R.
