 	I am submitting the following mail meassge that I received
because I would like to elect the author for the 'I've totally missed
the point of freedom award.' For those of you that read net.travel
and net.wanted, you will have seen my article entitled "Where should
I live?? I want YOUR help!!" I asked for info on places to live, and
I gave a few requirements about the place where I'd like to live.One
of them was I don't want to work for a company that does military
work. This is the absolutely charming reply I got back from one
person out there.

Hi Sharon,
	If you are unwilling to work on a military project, may i suggest
that you do the only fair (to your fellow Americans) thing, and find a
place where the rest of the country isn't willing to work for YOUR freedom.
Maybe then you will see the situation that you put me in vis-s-vis you. Not
only theat, but you will be with your own kind, under a govn. only you
could appriciate.
	This limits your options somewhat, as those countries not willing
to defend their freedom  don't last very long. The only one i can think
of is Afghanistan. The govn perfectly willing to let the Soviets pour in,
without lifting a finger to protect your freedom. Just your style!

			Have a nice time,

				xxxxxxx!xxxx

	What do you say, folks? Should this delightful mail message
get the award? Maybe we should also give him an honorable mention
in the oppression category?
