Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim
Silence encourages the tormentor never the tormented."
AND this brings me to my next subject......It seems
there is a wee bit of dissention among the ranks of
the Hactivist list members......This is alarming...and
needs to be ironed out quickly...what good will we
hope to accomplish here,if all we do is quibble???
Please..correct me If i am wrong...perhaps this list
is just for the "Discussion" on the meaning of the
word
hactivist? and not for the colaborating on projects
that need attention?...I do admit, I may have
misunderstood,and if so..do seriously appologise to
all....the discription was...lacking.
If I am NOT wrong.....it seems logical to get to know
each other a little,if we are to be effective as a
group....

Try growing up please. STOP posting crap like this to
the list. Between
you and a few others you are generating 90% of the
crap on this list.

Off topic subject stuff may not be a big deal for you
but others might not
like it. During the week my time is very precious.
When I come home from
work I don't want to be sorting through lots of
off-topic stuff. I could
care less if there was an occasional off topic
message, but if there were
entire threads of off topic stuff I would be
irratated.

piLL, this isn't really the place to talk about such
things. If you really
want to let folks know about your interest in
electronic music perhaps you
could put the URL in a signature file.

how about some real discussion??? on serious
subjects??? there hasn't been anything but mere
mentions  of things since the Ec.effort.
