(sigh) I visited the Cato page at: http://www.cato.org/ The Cato testimony was given by Wayne Crews, their Director of Technology Policy. You can reach him at: wcrews@cato.org My impression is that he is caught up in the theoretical beauty of "Promoting Public Policy Based on Individual Liberty, Limited Government, Free Markets and Peace." to the point where he is blind to the current state of the net, and the relatively modest regulations that would allow us to battle spammers on even ground. These are other people who work there. Since they put their addresses out where any passing 'bot can harvest them, I doubt they will mind my listing them here, in case you should want to ask his co-workers how they feel about it: dbandow@cato.org pbasham@cato.org abiggs@cato.org dboaz@cato.org rbalko@cato.org pbenjamin@cato.org jbrito@cato.org mchapman@cato.org cjl@cato.org slincico@cato.org jmarkels@cato.org rpollock@cato.org eporter@cato.org vwalston@cato.org lalbanes@cato.org bborens@cato.org sfollansbee@cato.org cklein@cato.org jleyland@cato.org smiller@cato.org ssullivan@cato.org bwyche@cato.org schamber@cato.org aelliott@cato.org lmajor@cato.org alanp@cato.org christier@cato.org astevens@cato.org webmaster@cato.org. service@cato.org. subscriptions@cato.org. events@cato.org. cklein@cato.org media@cato.org. intern@cato.org
