Adrian Lamo adrian@private 2003-12-30 --- http://www.freelamo.com/4um/index.php?board=5;action=display;threadid=608 Dear Friends, Alot of time has gone by since you heard from me, and some of you have moved on or lost interest, found better things to spend your time on, or otherwise ****ed off. That's fine. I expect nothing of anyone, and I've been lax in recognizing all the people who have given so much to make this site what it is today. I have not been indicted yet. I can't go into further detail at this time, except to say that I haven't rolled over on anyone for personal benefit. Times have been hard, and getting harder. I have dental bills and medical bills and school payments and classes and headaches. My life today is both the inverse of my life a year ago, and the exact same thing. Being away from the web in the ways I have been might have been difficult, but were ultimately .. seamless. Complex systems are complex systems, and interlock. My life is now what it was 365 days ago. Computers don't have to be involved. Court orders can lay no hand on ways of seeing. I enjoy school. I am a journalism major. I think I just may be a journalist, and maybe give hacker-turned-journalists a better name :) The days since September 4th have hurt everyone I love, and hurt me, but I wouldn't change a moment. I wouldn't turn away from the courthouse steps. I wouldn't change the years that came before. I look to an ending for this particular plotline. Any action of mine, I own. I will not deny the consequences of my actions, real or alleged. Our lives come to us for reasons we don't always have standing to see, and in moments where sight fails, it's faith that keeps me going. Not in a deity, or a theology, or anything more than knowing that it's *about* something. We are more than the sum of our parts. I want to be daylight. -- Adrian Lamo Carmichael, CA 12.29.2003 [twenty-oh-three] _______________________________________________ Politech mailing list Archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Moderated by Declan McCullagh (http://www.mccullagh.org/)
