I have descrambled the original publication (carefully protected with an obscure but unsafe algorithm called PDF) and placed a copy at: http://www.systemics.com/docs/papers/EMI_1998_opinion.html On my papers page is also located the original 1994 prepaid card report, my critique of that, and a Dutch CB commentary that pre-dates the opinion above somewhat. There are some other big useful reports mentioned that are actually on JYA's Cryptome for space reasons (ta muchly, John!). Enjoy! iang
