Message-ID: <acdc033d050731085463973b79@mail.gmail.com> Date: Sun Jul 31 16:54:44 2005 From: michealespinola at gmail.com (Micheal Espinola Jr) Subject: Cisco IOS Shellcode Presentation persuasion by possible threat of action/retaliation is still persuasion. You aren't forced to do it. Children world-wide are taught right from wrong under this edict. Given Lynn's statements to the press regarding his reasons to cooperate, who's to say the level of coercion applied or required? Your gun violence comparison is a bit over the top.
