I heard a rumor that Falwell is considering running for
President in 1986. Any confermations, or is this just rumor?
The question then posed is: Do I want my foreign policy decided
by someone who expects Armeggedon in another 15 years?
Very Worried,

It seems that if Robertson runs, he plans to run as a Republican. The paper quoted some unnamed Republican politician to the effect that now his party can have the 1984 Democratic race in reverse, with Howard Baker playing Walter Mondale, Jack Kemp playing Gary Hart, and Pat Robertson playing Jesse Jackson. That gets deeper the longer you look at it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "That we have made a hero of Howard Hughes tells us ... that the secret point of money and power in America is neither the things that money can buy nor power for power's sake ..., but absolute personal freedom, mobility, privacy." -- Joan Didion ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom Bennet @ U of MD Comp Sci Dept | ..!ihnp4!seismo!umcp-cs!gymble!bennet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My local Illinois Bell telephone directory (for Oswego,
Illinois) contains this warning:
WARNING
Illinois law defines harassment as the use of the
telephone to make lewd or indecent comment or
request with intent to offend....to abuse,
threaten, or harass (whether conversation takes
place or not)...to cause another's telephone to
ring repeatedly with intent to harass...to know-
ingly allow one's telephone to be used for any of
these purposes.
The law provides a penalty of up to six months in
jail and/or a $500 fine.
