by Sysop-Attorney Paula Goldman in her coverage of recent FCC actions
that impact the computer industry. The other topic covers intellectual

for Programming Freeedom, including one written for ShareDebate
International, kick off this debate.

Benston and Kaufman review the history of S&Ls. Bova writes about
freedom of information over the satellite waves. General Graham writes
on the political limitations imposed on the Patriot. The 28 Americans
killed by the Scud missile didn't need to die. Pournelle discusses how

Alongside Night, is excerpted (7 chapters). Martin writes on the Gulf
War and viruses. McAfee Associates' latest version of its virus detector
