"The voice with the smile

is gone for awhile.

The voice with the balls

will answer your calls."



(The above is a Communications Workers of America

ditty coined during a strike when the male ATT and Bell

management took over the switchboards)

*******







ATT SBC



1. ATT is still violating the law by asking for social security number and maintaining data records which include SSN.

These records go back at least 20 years.

2. ATT charges for services others provide for free.

For example, ATT gives only 2 services of a host

of free electronic options.. to customers. ATT actually wants to charge for

last number redial!

3. violated privacy law by selling your phone records

to the regime and other data miners

4. the Bell monopoly was broken up by federal law

but now ATT SBC is a bigger monster than ever before

5. ATT SBC was the third phone system to double

the price of payphones for the poor

6. Since at least the early 60's, ATT has been tapping

the phones of its union members, its employees,

and many others

7. ATT in the last 2 years has a new invasive

question... what is your landlord's name.. what is your

landlord's phone number.

8. As SBC Ameritech, ATT gave money to local libraries and

in return they phased out their freenet computer access.

9. If cellphones, the internet,

and other alternatives had not provided

competition for ATT, they would still

be pricegouging millions in long distance

from customers.

10. In a recent ad campaign, ATT

offered internet access at $12 a month.

However the fraudulent campaign

did not say that this was open only

to those with ATT phone lines. Those

who sign up on the internet only

find they are not eligibile after

all their data has been given

to the data miners.

11. ATT has a record of age

discrimination in hiring.



If you feel motivated to sue ATT over any of the above..

may angels give you victory.











22 BILLION



22 billion.. the Canadian cow slaughter

industry.. 22 billion castrating

Canadian democracy as

easily as a human castrates

a bull.. and ear tags him

and brands him with a searing

iron..



22 billion.. not that

much..

compared to millions of

acres in apple pear

and nut trees



Canada is being targeted by

the US military junta now..

with SARS bioterror

and with bans on its beef..



because it has worked

to decriminalize pot

and more.. because

it has worked for peace





but the more pure Canada

becomes.. the less seal clubbing

and Canadian tree killing

and cow killing occurs..

the less can Canada

be harmed by the US junta



for a bullet can not shoot the sun
