 This takes 30 seconds to do and is worth it...

 Please take a moment to read this -- it concerns a vote for a white
 supremacist Usenet newsgroup.  If you have a moment, I would urge you
 to vote NO, according to the instructions below, and to forward this
 message to others.

 A group of NEO-NAZIS are trying to form a newsgroup on
 Usenet called "rec.music.white-power", so that they can get their
 message of hate out to young people using the Internet.
 Newsgroups are public discussions on the Internet and their
 formation requires enough support from the Internet community.

 EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US HAS ONE VOTE when it comes
 to creating a new Usenet group.  I hope you will vote NO and
 thereby tell these NAZIS we don't want their stuff on the net..
 Below is the procedure, please repost this plea and get the NO vote 
out.
 If you want to see the official call for votes, you can try on
 "news.group".

 DO NOT VOTE TWICE - that would constitute voting fraud.

 HOW TO VOTE:

 Send e-mail (posts to newsgroups are invalid) to:

 music-vote@sub-rosa.com

 This is an impartial, third party vote taker.
 Please check the address before you mail your vote. Your mail
 message,  to be accepted by the counting computer,  must
 contain only the following statement with no signature:

       I vote NO on rec.music.white-power

 Vote counting is automated.  Failure to follow these
 directions may mean that your vote does not get counted.  If you do not
 receive an acknowledgment of your vote within three days contact the
 votetaker about the problem.  It's your responsibility to make sure
 your vote is registered correctly.

 Here's what Canada's George Burdi, of the neo-Nazi Heritage
 Front, had to say about this vote, on February 21, on his
 RESISTANCE mailing list:
 "There is a call for votes coming on rec.music.white-power
 in the next week or so, and you will be notified in a special
 issue of RREN exactly what to do.  FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
 TO THE LETTER.  Let me be perfectly blunt and state that we
 have more than enough net-nazis to win this thing handsdown.   But
 every one of you must vote YES!  And just voting yes means nothing
 unless you do it properly.  So you have been forewarned.  The
 instructions are coming to your email box soon, and they are not
 complicated.  Just follow them as told, and we will have a WP
 music  newsgroup finally!"

 If Mr. Burdi's confidence disturbs you, please give this letter the 
widest
 possible distribution, and help us deliver the largest NO vote in the
 history of the UseNet.
