Oh yeah, and by the way - they're going to have to make a copy of that
supposed "order" available to me in a form I can see it.  Telling me I
have to go to a website and see isn't going to help.  Is Cisco up to
sending a copy to every person on the planet?

To assert that these documents are not now TOTALLY within the public view
is absurd.

I like the idea of belief in drug-prohibition as a religion in that it is
a strongly held belief based on grossly insufficient evidence and
bolstered by faith born of intuitions flowing from the very beliefs they
are intended to support.
