        about expanding your mind."

I couldn't agree more with Deadpool and the whole EXiLED bunch.  I share
all of their opinions about freedom of information.  I don't believe that
anyone has the right to hide anything or keep certain information that is
vital to their personal welfare private.  I especially don't believe that
the freedom and right to learn from information should be infringed upon.
This is why, when I mail things, I don't use envelopes and why I don't at
all mind people knowing my real name is (censored). It's also why, when I
use a calling card from a payphone, I'm careful to use a loud voice so as
not to deprive anyone from hearing my full CCN and when I go to the ATM
machine I invite everyone to come and see my PIN number.

Unfortunately, though, what I do have trouble figuring out is EXiLED's use
of aliases.  Perhaps it was only an oversight on their part.  Perhaps they
had no idea that they were being completely hypocritical.

Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps..

In any case, I will endeavour to make up for their error.  Listed handily
under the Various Files menu are the names, addresses, and phone numbers of
some of the more active and prominent EXiLED members.  Don't worry about
questions of ethics or personal privacy.  EXiLED and I completely agree
upon the bounds of the freedom of information.  I'm sure they don't mind my
releasing this file.  After all, it's merely an invokation of that
oh-so-precious right to knowledge.

Please feel free to give any EXiLED member a call and quiz them over any
subject you please.  I'm more than amply confident that they won't refuse
you in your quest for information.
