[Ralph Mecham, if the quotes in the article are accurate, is one of the most nasty, snide, and petty characters that I've encountered since I began covering the federal bureaucracy. Shame on him. --Declan] ******** Date: Sun, 09 Sep 2001 22:39:37 -0700 To: politechat_private, declanat_private From: Tim Bishop <timbishopat_private> Subject: NYT article re Judge Kozinski and Mecham. Declan, There is an article in today's NYT, http://www.nytimes.com/2001/09/09/technology/09COUR.html, on the monitoring of judicial internet use. It has some amazing and disgusting quotes by Leonidas Ralph Mecham: He also said Judge Kozinski had shown "great interest in keeping pornography available to judges," especially of what Mr. Mecham called "the more homosexual and exotic varieties." Pretty amazing stuff that you might want to send out to politech readers who are following this stuff. I was so outraged at the quote that I send Judge Kozinski a personal message of support, even though I don't now him from Adam. Thanks, Tim Bishop, happy politech subscriber. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- POLITECH -- Declan McCullagh's politics and technology mailing list You may redistribute this message freely if you include this notice.
