Permission granted. I write mine, so why shouldn't you write
yours. The primary requirement is to recognize the subliminal
programming and understand the politics of experience -- then you
have a choice instead of being forced into an action by your own
psychology. It also helps if you don't give a damn about anybody
else's opinion of you. Of course, that makes you very dangerous --
particularly if you own a press and thus have freedom of the press.

Jim Winer ..!lzfme!jwi 

I believe in absolute freedom of the press.
I believe that freedom of the press is the only protection we have
	from the abuses of power of the church, 
	from the abuses of power of the state,
	from the abuses of power of the corporate body, and 
	from the abuses of power of the press itself.
Those persons who advocate censorship offend my religion.
