How about the ones in a dark glass bowl? I have wondered about this but don't have answers. One direction of thought and research which might be productive is nondestructively temporarily disabling the camera, perhaps by flooding its light sensor with a focused beam of light, like a flashlight or laser - it's going to compensate for that level of lighting, leaving the rest of the frame underexposed, as long as it's misled by that local brightness. Also, if you're monkeying with cop cameras, that *would* probably be obstruction of justice or interfering with a police officer or whatever your local don't fuck with the cops statute is. No need to use something so targeted at the cop camera, just install rear-facing infrared floods and keep them on all the time. (Cadillac drivers with the new night-driving, IR, heads-up displays will be particularly upset..) The IR cut-off filters of most cameras are too broad to block invisible near IR, so the floods will cause the AGC to greatly darken the image as described above. steve

NSA Snooping Domestic Crypto
Debate on whether the NSA spies domestically on US persons appears to be yes according to USSID 18, dated July 23, 1993, which was obtained by the National Security Archive a while back, for which we offer an HTML: http://cryptome.org/nsa-ussid18.htm Parts previously redacted concerning domestic surveillance are now revealed, among them these provisions for acquiring and retaining indefinitely domestically acquired encipherments: [Quote] (2) Domestic communications reasonably believed to contain technical data base information may be retained for a period sufficient to allow a thorough exploitation and to permit access to data that are, or are reasonably believed likely to become, relevant to a current or future foreign intelligence requirement. Sufficient duration may vary with the nature of the exploitation. (S-CCO) a. In the context of a cryptanalytic effort, maintenance of technical data bases requires retention of all communications that are enciphered or reasonably believed to contain secret meaning, and sufficient duration may consist of any period of time during which encrypted material is subject to, or of use in, cryptanalysis. (S-CCO) b. In the case of communications that are not enciphered or otherwise thought to contain secret meaning, sufficient duration is one year unless the Deputy Director for Operations, NSA, determines in writing that retention for a longer period is required to respond to authorized foreign intelligence or counterintelligence requirements. (S-CCO) [End quote] Again, these sections were censored in versions of USSID 18 previously made public, a 1980 version here: http://cryptome.org/nsa-ussid18-80.htm While the quoted material is a small part of the 52-page document, variations on it are repeated more than once, and seems to be the one exception to the requirement to avoid domestic interceptions and to destroy any that are inadvertently acquired. The classification (S-CCO) is not explained but some think it perhaps indicates material limited to the UK/USA agreement and/or the Echelon partners. A better answer is welcomed.

Bullshit, Libertarians choose to call themselves by that label, it's a self imposed box. Your criticism is without merit. Or perhaps the ghost of Wittgenstein will walk through you... I'll regret responding to Choate sooner than later, I suspect, but in my experience, most people who are libertarians don't call themselves that. And they certainly don't identify as Libertarians. -Declan
Re: No panties?
I can confirm that Jeff Gordon is not Blanc Weber: http://www.mccullagh.org/image/10/blanc-weber.html For instance, there is no reliable evidence that Jeff Gordon wears panties, though it is clear that he's far more of an avid reader of cypherpunks than Ms. Weber: http://www.cluebot.com/article.pl?sid=01/04/11/238254mode=thread -Declan On Wed, Jun 20, 2001 at 09:11:09AM -0700, John Doe #2 wrote: At 05:28 PM 6/15/01 +, Steve Thompson wrote: For many reasons, we have been perusing the archives in order to resolve a number of burning questions.

Despite much heated discussion on the subject, a first-order analysis of the archives clearly shows that we may not be certain on the question of whether or not Blanc wore panties. Odd, we had the same feeling at the time; in fact we suspected that BW was JG. However Declan has a picture of an older woman captioned Blanc Weber, so perhaps not.

Re: The Art of Submarine Warfare
Randomly checking for a drivers license which you are required to have when driving. Many people who have had their drivers license suspended often drive their vehicles anyway. I would assume most states (if not all) require you to surrender you drivers license to the police when asked. I believe the law actually views the drivers license as the property of the state which would be where they have the right to revoke it.Jon BeetsPacer Communications- Original Message -From: "Reese" [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: "Jon Beets" [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Saturday, June 23, 2001 12:32 AMSubject: Re: The Art of Submarine Warfare BUT - what are they randomly checking for?
