To those persons who add "Intelligence Agency food" to their postings:
your practice is foolish, even downright reckless; to wit:
1. Any Intelligence Agency worth its salt can _easily_ dedicate
1 (one) person to read _all_ postings going into or out of the
U.S. The fact is, it probably would not require a full-time
effort.
2. _IF_ your practice were to be effective (and I'm not saying it
is), you would (presumably) be over-loading the scanning ability,
or follow-up investigation ability, of the/any Intelligence Agency.
This is not in the best interests of your country (and therefore
yourself), in that _real_ security threats might be over-looked.
3. You are bringing yourself to the attention of the Intelligence
Agency. Believe me, THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU WANT TO DO. Those
people are _dead serious_, and more often than not, DO NOT
PLAY UNDER THE SAME RULES THAT YOU AND I DO. They have powers
and abilities (albeit infrequently used) that you don't even
want to have nightmares about being used against you. (Ever
thought about what a cramp in your lifestyle it would be if you
just disappeared without a trace? :-)
By far, #3 is the one you probably should worry about most.
