I just forwarded the following tidbit - from Paul Saffo via Dave
Farber's IP list - to you folks:

> ... you just can't make this stuff up... an Amtrak photo contestant
> in the annual Amtrak "Picture Our Trains" contest is arrested by
> Amtrak Police for taking a picture of... you guessed it!!
>
> http://carlosmiller.com/2008/12/27/amtrak-police-arrest-photographer-participating-in-amtrak-photo-contest/
>
> Amtrak photo contestant arrested by Amtrak police in NYC's Penn
> StationDecember 27th, 2008
> ...


But then I found access to it was "Forbidden" with a 303 error-code!


So I asked Paul for any other source, and he pointed me to http://fergdawg.blogspot.com/
  which DOES carry at least part of Carlos Miller's article as the 6th
1/4/09 item in the blog - along with lots MORE stuff that's even MORE
"disturbing"!


But now - NOW! - I find that that the carlosmiller.com line above,
that was "Forbidden" (to me and two of the folks who responded to my
initial message) is again AVAILABLE.  At least as of 3:24 pm Pacific
time today.

Nice thing about the net - it's REAL hard to censor content, once it
has appeared ANYplace.  ;-)
