	"This list is for the serious information warrior, those who want to
	keep abreast of the rise of information warfare, and the casual observer
	who wants to understand the issues."

The way to alter the behavior of the forum is to start discussiong the
issues that arise.  I, for one, am interested in all views.

I have come to believe that high quality information warfare involves
deep thought and understanding of behaviors.  I have spent some
considerable time lately looking at these issues and applying them in a
practical sense - hence some of the recent papers at all.net.  I would
love to hear other views and see information on other researchers'
results.

It's easy to return.  Start debating.
