Just one little indication of how people at the bottom WILL strike back at
the top, in this case even WITHIN the law, when the policies at the top are
not respected... This is cultural jamming. There is no longer any
protection in a "private" sataus when it's buying and selling what the
public considers public. Music is no different than trees, and just as
important.

>>We need your help!

>> Stop Citibank from financing Pacific Lumber, and stop the Clear-Cutting in
>> the Headwaters in Northern California.
>>
>> Join the Citibank Phone Blockade
>> Call Citibank stockbrokers Salomon Smith Barney at
>> 1-800-284-1575. Insist on speaking to a stock broker, ask for information
>> about investments, and stay on the phone for 15 minutes. That costs Salomon
>> Smith Barney $1.50 for the phone call. And it ties up the broker - which is
>> really costly because some brokers make more than a brain surgeon. Call and
>> try it.
>>
>> Starting Monday March 5, 2001
>> We need 500 Volunteers to call Salomon Smith Barney from 6:30 a.m. in the
>> morning until 1:00 p.m. in the afternoon Monday through Friday when the
>>stock
>> market is open.
>>
>> That will give Salomon Smith Barney an extra $20,000 dollar a day phone
>>bill.
>> It will begin to tie up the 40 to 50 stockbrokers at the firm. And cut off
>> investors and disrupt trading, which could get really expensive.
>>
>> If investors are half a minute late in getting a call through to their
>>broker
>> when they absolutely have to sell, they could lose a great deal of MONEY.
>> Wise investors will want to close their accounts with SSB and take their
>> business elsewhere to avoid the unpleasantness of losing MONEY.
>>
>> If Citibanks wants their phone privileges back, they will have to stop the
>> Clear-Cutting!
