If you fail to see that hiring people on the net is a contirubtion to the US economy, while soliciting techniREDS is leading to the destruction of free enterpr9ise in Nicaragua and eventually here, then you are an idiot as well as the fool your statements make you appear to be. No, adherenets of suppression whoever they are should not be allowed to use this net to hire/solicit volunteers for the butchers of Nicaragua, who have slaughtered some 10,000 plus Mosquito Indians, and who are turning their territory into a Gulag outpost. I would like to see the posters of such trash prohibited from taking advantage of this net to support communists, Sandinista or otherwise. Would you all stand by while South AFrican supporters of apartheid asked for onlyu@only technical support, say ApartAid? Of course not; your institutions would pull your plug. While SA cannot ever hurt us, the reds can and will, so the same logic should apply. Shut the hell up about hiring for the Reds or get off the net.
