TOK Re-Formed
=============
A group called Tribunal Of Knowledge, which has undergone previous
re-formations has once again re-formed. The person who is currently "in
charge" of the group says that he had permission from High Evolutionary, the
group's founder, to re-form the organization. Although the group hasn't
publicly announced their existence or written any files, we should be hearing
from them in the near future.

LOD/H Technical Journal
=======================
Lex Luthor of LOD/H (Legion of Doom/Hackers) has been busy with school, etc.,
so he has not had the time, nor the initiative to release the next issue of
the LOD/H Technical Journal. On this note, he has tentatively turned the
Journal over to Phantom Phreaker, who will probably be taking all
contributions for the Journal. No additional information is available.

Congress To Restrict 976/900 Dial-A-Porn Services
=================================================
Congress is considering proposals to restrict dial-up services in an effort to
make it difficult for minors to access sexually explicit messages. A
House-Senate committee is currently negotiating the "dial-a-porn" proposal.
Lawmakers disagree whether or not the proposal is constitutional and are
debating the issue of requiring phone companies to offer a service that would
allow parents, free of charge, to block the 976/900 services. Other proposals
would require customers to pay in advance or use credit cards to access the
976/900 services.
Some companies are currently offering free services that restrict minors from
accessing sexually explicit messages. AT&T and Department of Justice
officials are cooperating in a nationwide crackdown of "dial-a-porn" telephone
