The Patriot Act has provided all the necessary tools and has spawned a 
new McCarthyism.  Activists have been hassled for a long time now, 
with a few questionable deaths and its only getting worse.  Churchill 
case in point.  

Might I end up on one of Homeland's lists for buying "Roosting 
Chickens" from my local bookstore?  I'm done for if they find me 
hanging out on a list full of commie pinkos!  ;)  

You may want to consider not keeping logs, putting the <meta 
name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow"> tags in to stop search 
engine spider indexing, and to make the list and its archives 
private.  No need to make it easy for them to find the out of context 
evidence they might need on any one of us.  And since there appear to 
be a few high profile people on this list, it might help protect 
them.
