If you're going to use an anonymizer, tell no one. Otherwise,
you're not _at all_ anonymous. Note that alt.extropians is
indexed by Alta Vista and DejaNews, and the Extropians list
is indexed by Alta Vista and a number of other engines.

If alt.extropians is not "controversial", then why did you
post under a pseudonym there, but not here? This list is now
almost as wide-open to the world as alt.extropians.
