Yah, someone's stolen my country, and I want it back! The incident about the bridge that was being photographed, my wife reminds me, did turn out to be a suspicious event. The two fellows taking the pictures did turn out to be part of some "terrorist" org of some sort, and was driving around to all the wal-marts and such buying up all the cheap mobile Trac-phones with the free 60 minute talk time to send overseas to known "bad guys".... At least that's what the propiganda rags said... Oh, um, I meant the honest and unbiased Newspapers....

This is similar to the way it was here before revolution. Communists banned taking pictures of "military objects", such as railway stations, aiports, bridges, ... I laughed when united states came up with the war on terrorism. It remembered me of fighting with internal enemy in the days of communism. Internal enemy was someone considered hostile to the regime, but was mostly constructed by propaganda. Similar propaganda to the one you have against terrorists. The label "beware! the enemy is listening" on military phones and transmitters from that days just popped in my mind... :-) -- Martin Tomasek _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
