  And after the elections, what then?

  It's still worth the time to call *now* and tell your legislators that
  you don't want this coming back *ever*.

Interestingly, the Senate Judiciary Committee, which Leahy chairs,
has a web site on which anyone can post a public message concerning
this legislation.  See

    http://judiciary.senate.gov/special/input_form.cfm

Several dozen messages are posted there.  They are OVERWHELMINGLY
against the CBDTPA.

re#1 Oh I agree reps should still be contacted, it's just nice to have
a little breathing room, that's all.

Now linked to cyberpunk, your conf of net culture and controversy.

don't you love how they give these things longer and longer names with a
confusingly LONG abbreviation so it's difficult to even talk about.
they should name it Entertainment Industry Fucks Everyone Up the ASS
