Okay, many a-infos people complained that they wanted a better format
for our pamphlet (Permanent Revolution), so it is now available as a simple
webpage at http://tao.ca/~wrench/dist/badpress/
(surf with images turned off if you have a slow connection)
Also, here are some of the rejected slogans from the pamphlet
