there was big piece this morning on NPR on this new 
'infrastructure protection racket, er, group' in the FBI.

them because of our access to classified intelligence sources."


and of course, after they convince a lot of people of that, then
we'll get


        and if you don't do key-escrow, we won't be able
        to help you, and you already know we're the only
        ones who can help


this is incredibly insideous and has all the fingerprints of
having been planned by the psych-ops professionals (who are
very, very good)
