Hi All,

Just a reminder that the Crypto Party is on Thursday night. We've got a
number of people lined up to guide us through tools related to encryption
(we just added encrypted phone calls!). Stop pretending you're going to get
around to learning this stuff on your own and join us as we become more
responsible netizens. Afterward we'll be heading to Thirsty Thursday!

As mentioned previously, if *you'd* like to present a tool or mini-talk,
add yourself to the wiki or let us know!

Apparently last year's Crypto Party flyers came with kittens, and we heard
some grumbling about the kitten deficiency thus far, so we've remedied
that. I hope you find this flyer to be sufficiently delightful and
ridiculous. Note the parrot's squawk.

See you there!
Rena & Nick

Rena as a back seat driver the whole time)*
