-= The Sixth Column =-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Column Update #3
----------------
By: Lestat De Lioncourt
Whew! It has been an extremely busy month for the Column and its members.
Things are progressing better than we ever imagined. The response that we
have been getting is in a word, phenomenal. I'd like to thank all those who
have been helping out since the beginning and who have taken time out of their
personal lives to assist in our endeavors.
This could very well be the most explosive issue of DnA ever. Even though
Sixth Column has only appeared twice before, the information you are about to
read is in a word "incredible". In this installment we have included two
.GIFs that are copies of FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) documents. Please
see the file that corresponds to the GIFs for further information.
DnA / Sixth Column
Go Global!
------------------
In the past few months there has been an enormous response to the
information we have made available. Many sysops from around the globe are
requesting to be linked up with DnANet and ColumNet.
More information on this will be coming in the next issue. If you can't
wait that long, call DnA Systems and leave e-mail for the sysop requesting
more information.
DnA / Sixth Column
Proudly Announce
The Online Information Ordering System
--------------------------------------
We have been toying around with the idea of putting up an online system
for users to order information literature through DnA Systems. Items
available for ordering will include: books, audio and video tapes, and other
goodies. All will be available at below retail value. DnA Systems will take
NO profit in this venture. Shipping and Handling + Cost = item price. Only
money orders will be accepted.
There has been some discussion concerning the privacy of user's name and
addresses. We have decided to allow users who wish to keep their
address/names/orders completely private, to use PGPed messages to order their
items.
Only one person will be responsible for handling orders, and will have a
special PGP key for this purpose. It will be available on the system shortly.
We will be putting up a catalog of items shortly. Be sure to check it
out. More information will be available shortly on this, or call DnA Systems
for instant updates.
Incredible News of the Month
----------------------------
When I began to delve into the fraud of the Infernal Rape Service (IRS), I
began by reading a series of books written by Irwin Schiff. His writings are
based on legal facts. He has written several books such as:
o The Federal Mafia
o The Biggest Con: How the Government is Fleecing You
o The Social Security Scam
o The Great Income Tax Hoax
o How Anyone Can Stop Paying Income Taxes
o The Kingdom of Moltz
o and others
He was UNLAWFULLY put in phederal prison because he stopped "volunteering"
for the phederal income tax (tribute). I have read the court transcripts of
the case and it doesn't take a genius to see the fraud and cover-up committed
by the IRS, US Attorney, and the Federal Judge.
Irwin Schiff was to be released from federal prison in December of 1993,
however it has been discovered that he was released early!
He will be touring the country immediately, doing seminars, speaking on
radio addresses, tv and cable interviews. During September he will be in
California, and then the fun begins.
I have already been in contact with Irwin Schiff. We will be meeting with
him personally when he arrives. He has recently bought a modem and is curious
about the implications of CyberSpace. (If he only knew)
I have not received any information as to his current schedule. I will
post his dates/locations/times the moment I get them on DnA Systems.
Information will probably be available in mid-September. I recommend that if
you have the opportunity, go to his seminar and listen to him. You will be
amazed!
His books will be available for ordering as soon as we work out a few
details.
Sixth Column
File Section Expanding
----------------------
In the past six to seven months since the birth of the Column, our file
section has been expanding on a daily basis. Not including the H/P side of
DnA Systems, we now house over 1,500 files of information not readily
available to the average citizen.
Users from all over the country have been downloading hundreds of files on
a weekly basis. Some even batch the entire section and d/l 24 megs at once.
I personally have been bombarded with e-mail by people who wish to thank us
for the opportunity to access this information and provide it to the people in
CyberSpace.
Since the beginning, DnA Systems has maintained that all information
should be free. To this end, there are NO RATIOS for file access. I'm glad
to see that many, many people are taking advantage of this.
Just this past week, the CIA released more documents on the JFK
assassination. If anyone has any new information files, please send them to
DnA Systems.
If anyone knows where we can get an electronic copy of Clinton's New Tax
and Spend Package, please let us know. We have been searching for it but
haven't found anything yet. If you have any information, please call DnA
Systems and leave me e-mail.
With more and more people uploading new information from all corners of
the world, we hope to double the number of files by the end of the year.
Again, thanks for your support.
Modem Buyers Beware!
--------------------
Imagine that you wished to upgrade your slow 2400bps modem to say, a
14.4kbps modem. First thing you would probably do is shop around before you
bought one, just to see the difference in prices.
Let us also imagine that you happened to find yourself in Computer City
(owned by Tandy Corp.), and that you had noticed a nice internal 14.4kbps modem
on sale for a reasonable price. A sales person approaches you and the
conversation follows these lines:
Sales Weasel: Afternoon, can I help you find anything today?
CyberPerson: Yes, I'm interested in this internal 14.4kbps modem with the 14.4
fax. Could I take a look at the box to see the specs?
Sales Weasel: Sure thing. (opens cabinet and hands box to the customer)
CyberPerson: Hmmm (mumbling to himself) MNP-5 . . . error correction . . .
<<At this point in the story, the sales weasel transforms into a Big Brother
type of character>>
BB Sales Weasel: So why do YOU need such a fast modem? Do you transfer BIG
files or something?
CyberPerson: I don't think it's any of your damn business anyway, so just
point me in the direction of the cash register and I'll complete
this business transaction.
BB Sales Weasel: Just a moment. (Walks away and returns with a clip board
with several pages under the clip) We need you to fill this
out first please.
CyberPerson: (Notices it is some kind of registration form) Why do you need
my driver's license and Social Security Number?
BB Sales Weasel: It's part of the registration.
CyberPerson: But I haven't even purchased the damn thing yet! (Begins losing
temper at this point) Why don't we get the manager out here?
BB Sales Weasel: But I am the manager.
CyberPerson: Screw you asshole, forget it! (Walks out)
This exchange actually happened not too long ago at a Computer City in
California. I don't know about the rest of you out there, but I'm not going
to register my modem with any damn corporation or any other entity if I can
avoid it. Especially when they ask for a Driver's License and a Socialist
Security Number!
Goes along the same lines as the NSA wanting it to be a requirement for
all users of public key encryption to register their private keys with them.
Yeah right! Would you want your personal information in some database
accessible by any number of entities who could cross-reference your Social
(In)Security Number?
New Article Column Added
"The Cult of the Black Robe"
----------------------------
We've been toying around with the idea of putting a month by month column
concerning the unconstitutional acts of judges, U.S. Attorneys, Lawyers, etc.
Our premier article is quite a shocker. We want to give all who read this
magazine the opportunity to add their stories to this section. If you have
been screwed, or are being screwed in an unconstitutional manner, we would
like to hear about it and publish it in the next issue of DnA. ALL articles
will be considered, we do not censor for subject matter. Please put as many
facts/dates/etc as possible. Please send your article to Lestat De Lioncourt
at DnA Systems.
