Interesting to read this again, especially after the latest
NSA/Verizon news. It was written in 2000 but talks about 14 years
prior. Think of the capabilities available now!  Relevant sections

"But from that meeting and my subsequent dealings with the Warrenton
Training Center, I determined that they were involved in a decades old

all this power was, "Listening...just listening."

"Yet somehow these defenders of our liberty expect us to lie down and
accept their lies and their invasion into our daily lives...

...that's what they are counting on."
