"Squeal like a pig." Just saying the line conjures up images of Hillbillies and Ned Beatty's sweaty pink face. It's a powerful image, jammed into the American psyche like a fat Hillbilly cock in a tiny city-dweller's anus. The image will just not go away, no matter how hard you try. -- enigma
The latest tactic in computer politics is to go _on
strike_. Web users in the UK are trying to organize a
kingdom-wide "CYBERSTRIKE" for tomorrow (12-13-1998) to
protest price gouging by British Telecom.
In the US,
crypto-advocate, author and crazy Lisp programmer, Bob
Glickstein, is calling for pretty much every computer
professional in the WHOLE WORLD to go on a one-day strike
this coming Monday (12-14-1998) in order to protest the
international "Wassenaar Agreement," which was signed on
December 3rd by 33 countries, including the United States.
