Nowadays, with so many hackers, phreakers, rogue pro- grammers and cyber-pirates falling, accused, sued, etc I've thought of it and come to the conclusion that there is, for me, no way of beign prosecuted for breaking the law w/the computer. I've been always good and careful, I've never jeopardized my freedom doing illegal things like: phreaking, hacking, spreading virii, rogue coding, etc. I've never supported piracy nor did I commit any type of fraud inspired by underground, clandestine, lectures and/or moods. I have never contributed to the circulation of dishonest information like: kiddy porn, explosive's recipes, witchcraft texts and the like...altho- uhg one "/magik" directory on my former system always was there keeping on growing, I have always being selective w/the files on it, letting there only texts of the occult w/no connections to witchcraft. My systems were always oriented towards text art and alternative publishing excluing the types of files that I've named. But always I think of this things: that's why I come to the point of apologizing for the things _I_ have done: the unauthorized use of somebody's else character and paraphernalia, wich is Boromir (c) JRR Tolkien and the Silmarill. This was when I've wrote for CRC in 1997, but that is not all, also I want to apologize for the exerpts from poems or entire poems I've taken for enhancing my ascii collections: namely "Ella" by Oliverio Girondo, "Mariano" by Mario Benedetti, a speech by Nekro of FUNxPEOPLE and also I've taken the name of a song by Acidos Populares that is "Dance with the Wind". As I told in the review of the poems for Circe also I'm sorry for the forging I've tried to do of "La Colmena" and the other thing is that I've choosen my nickname "Pop-A" based on the "P.R.y.S.R.d.R" (ie: Los Redondos) 's song "The Great Pop Beast". Redondos influence can be seen in those 1997 poems. But, again, let me confess that my mental health by 1997 wasn't 100% sound: I was a victim of DISSOCIATION and ALIENATION, have mercy on me because of it, it was not my fault at all, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry and sorry. In a more merciful plane, at least to my eyes: The Beastie Boys' lyrics in the colly of the Flash (Scene) Party 99, along with the exerpts from the books of: Carlos Castanedaa and Erich From: na- mely "Teachings of Don Juan" and "The Sane Society". Apologies. By the way, in this changing times of technological upheaval when is not easy to find something really worth to read, what is better than a connoisseur like me pointing the direction of the scenic thinking? Shamanism and sociology. But nevertheless, what I've done is not right, but I've a justification, I WAS MENTALLY ILL WHEN I'VE DONE THAT... the name of the malady: Dissociation. Lastly, I've heard underworld's song "Bruce Lee" wich has a lyric wich app- ears to say "life kid" I liked the phrase and I've done an ascii logo wich says "life kid"... then started to speculate about copyrights and decided to be very careful from that moment onwards. I revised the poems and took out all the infringiments of copyrights that I could find. I WANT TO BE FORGIVEN for my _alienated_ poems and logos for Circe/1997, and I WANT TO LIVE PEACEFULLY and never disturbed by nobody respecting my life w/the computer. MY LIFE *IS THE COMPUTER*. peace and freedom from the earth. Shree S.G.
