INTRODUCTION

To "live free" means to be able to control your own life

and to avoid violence, or the threat of violence, by others.

What you do and how you do it will almost always determine

whether or not freedom will be yours. But YOU must take the

responsibility for creating your own freedom. No one,

especially the "government" will do it for you.

To "disappear" means to make it impossible for other

people to invade your personal world of freedom. Since most

of such invasion is by means of electronic data gathering and

cross-referencing, you must be able to short-circuit these

procedures effectively.

The most efficient method today is through the use of

what we call "alternate identification". If the new names

and numbers you plug into the networks don't match

the old ones, you have not only "disappeared", but have also

been "reborn". And being reborn means leaving your past records

where they can no longer affect you and your lifestyle.

This "disappearing" of individuals is obviously discomforting

to institutions and governments determined to control

personal activities in the Land of the Free. To them

it appears downright seditious, since in reality their power

depends directly on the number of people they can control --

through computerized records, of course.

To those who actually "disappear", however, the act is

one of tremendous personal liberation. Free men owe very

little to those who restrict opportunities on the basis of past

records. An extreme example, which nevertheless applies

to all of us, is this: When a person convicted of a felony

has served his full sentence, is he then "free"? Hardly.

What he will experience is really a LIFE SENTENCE of second-rate

opportunity.

And what happens to the convict, in practice, happens to

*everyone* who manages to have negative personal information

placed in his "records". When it comes to the point of a

person's having to live with a condemning past and ever-

narrowing opportunities, it becomes easily understandable
