I just forwarded the following tidbit - from Paul Saffo via Dave  
Farber's IP list - to you folks:

> ... you just can't make this stuff up... an Amtrak photo contestant  
> in the annual Amtrak "Picture Our Trains" contest is arrested by  
> Amtrak Police for taking a picture of... you guessed it!!

> Amtrak photo contestant arrested by Amtrak police in NYC's Penn  
> StationDecember 27th, 2008
> ...


But then I found access to it was "Forbidden" with a 303 error-code!


So I asked Paul for any other source, and he pointed me to http://fergdawg.blogspot.com/ 
 which DOES carry at least part of Carlos Miller's article as the 6th  
1/4/09 item in the blog - along with lots MORE stuff that's even MORE  
"disturbing"!


But now - NOW! - I find that that the carlosmiller.com line above,  
that was "Forbidden" (to me and two of the folks who responded to my  
initial message) is again AVAILABLE.  At least as of 3:24 pm Pacific  
time today.

Nice thing about the net - it's REAL hard to censor content, once it  
has appeared ANYplace.  ;-)
