politics (was Re: Antiquated Software)

[John Esak]

The recent flap over recording calls from outside the US to person inside
the US.  Something I just sent to one of the big talk show....

NSA tap overhears on an incoming call from Pakistan to a person in New York
City:
"Hello. This is Bin Laden calling.  Please hang up and call me back so they
can't listen in to what I have to tell you."
"Okay, boss. Will do."<click>
NSA tap ends here....
