Subject: Access Denied - Adbusters computers stolen


Last month the Adbusters Media Foundation -- a non-profit group of
"Culture Jammers" -- experienced a break-in.  The perpetrators took
everything -- computers, zips, dats, scanner, printer... even phones.

It is unknown whether the perpetrators were ordinary thieves, or
whether the corporate PR interests that have been the targets of
Adbusters' "subvertising" and counter-commercials have now added
*illegal* Watergate-style actions to their previous legal campaigns
against Adbusters.

In any case, Adbusters wishes the world to know they are in the market
for new/used/donated computers.  Please contact them directly if you
might be able to help.  Thanks much.  (See contact info below.)
