In 1996 I resolve to 
	
	1) Avoid ad-hominem attacks even on complete idiots
	2) Not post non-crypto libertarian or consipracy items to 
	   cypherpunks.
	3) Contribute to, Implement and use open cryptographic standards
	   rather than  proprietary ones.
	4) Have most of my regular internet hosts running IPSEC before 1997.
