What is this mail2news gateway thing.  All I want to do is sign on to

 "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty: power is ever stealing from
the many to the few.  The manna of popular liberty must be gathered each
day, or it is rotten... The
hand entrusted with power becomes, either from human depravity or esprit
de corps, the necessary enemy of the people.  Only by continual
oversight can the democrat in office be
prevented from hardening into a despot: only by unintermitted agitation
can a people be kept sufficiently awake to principle not to let liberty
be smothered in material
prosperity... Never look, for an age when the people can be quiet and
safe.  At such times despotism, like a shrouding mist, steals over the
mirror of Freedom"  - Wendell
Phillips
