McMickle also drafted the Grassley bill which would turn ftp of PGP into
a RICO-enforceable federal crime. That's the bill the FBI declared was
laughably extreme. It sank into nothingness -- but I did have a few

pleasure in the idea of putting PRZ in jail and siezing all his worldly
goods for the crime of nose-thumbing at the USGov't.
