Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a
species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of
reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and
makes a crime out of things that are not crimes.
- Abraham Lincoln



THE GREAT USENET PISSCOPS REGISTRY

Last revision date 12/10/96



This registry is comprised of two lists: the first contains companies that
have instituted urine or other Human Quality testing, and the second is
comprised of companies that do not conduct Human Quality Tests, or that are
known to have public policies AGAINST the invasion of privacy that Human
Quality Tests constitute.

The Registry exists to crusade against the current United State's
government-sponsored misinformation and terrorism designated the War on
Drugs. This is about individual privacy and freedom, and is not advocacy of
any sort of substance abuse, either legal and illegal. Since drug testing
cannot be correlated to impairment what is the point other than snooping.
In the light of corporate willingness to assist in the erosion of our
personal freedoms, this list maintains a strong plea to boycott the
purchase of products from the companies presented in list one. When an
employer has the right to invade your body, any further regard of liberty,
freedom, and individual choice is merely lip service.



HOW TO OBTAIN THE CURRENT REGISTRY

A current copy of the Registry will be available via email and usenet on a
monthly basis.

The Registry will be sent to you via your FROM: address. Text in the body
of the message will be dropped.


For those who do not have internet access or who desire a hard copy, you
may order a copy from by sending whatever you can to cover the cost of
printing and mailing to the following address:

HOW TO SUBMIT TO THE REGISTRY

Companies reported to me will only be "registered" if the submitter has
FIRST PERSON experience. In addition, companies that conduct Human Quality
Tests other than urine tests should also be registered. For example, if
your company has a mandatory medical test and reserves the right to release
the results to insurance companies (et al.), you should submit it for
addition to the Registry. Said tests are also an invasion of privacy.

The identity of all registerers will be protected and all identifying data
will be deleted as the list is updated. If you submit a company, please try
to provide as much information as possible, particularly the available
recourse. As many people are forced to choose between the "lesser" of two
evils, knowing what the company does beyond forcing Human Quality Testing
is important to inform their consent.

For those submissions received via email, I will attempt to acknowledge
receipt via email. If you do not receive an acknowledgement, please a
duplicate message.

To add a company to the Registry, please send a note to the following
address:

*via email - to register a company, set the Subject: to "PISSCOP" (caps
optional). The body of the message will NOT be deleted.
Send the submission to SUNDANCE@QADAS.COM

*via post - Sundance
4275 East Iliff Avenue
Suite 106
Denver, Colorado 80222 USA


NOTE: If you think an entry is incorrect, please relay both the correct
information. But note that FIRST PERSON experience or information is
required in order to both register a company or to have the registration
modified. Furthermore, if you are employed by a division of a company
listed herein and believe company policy to be different than what is
listed, check with your human resources department to verify COMPANY-WIDE
policy before asking me to modify an entry. If ANY division of a company is
listed as conducting Human Quality Testing, it is presumed that employees
in all divisions of that company are at risk and thus the whole company is
registered. Again, any corporation which conducts Human Quality Testing
ANYWHERE within the company is considered a supporter of Washington
misinformation and social terrorism, and thus registered.


If you are a corporate executive for a registered company and are upset at
seeing your company listed in the Registry, here are the forms of recourse
available to you:

a) if the entry is factually incorrect, it will be corrected;
b) if the entry is factually correct, abstain from further testing.

In either case, a letter written on official company letterhead containing
the corrected information must be sent to the above postal address; emailed
information will not suffice. Furthermore, the letter must be dated, and
signed with your name and your official title. Otherwise save your
energies.



REPRINT PERMISSION

I hereby grant permission to reproduce the Registry intact anywhere so long
as the purpose of the reproduction is to fight against Human Quality
Testing or to educate about Human Quality Testing. The Registry may not be
reproduced in any manner, by anyone in the employ either direct or indirect

federal or state government is strictly prohibited and punishable to the
fullest extent of the law. (That's right, I'll try to seize YOUR shit.)
Credit to the Registry's publisher (me), information on obtaining updated
copies, on submitting to and on modifying entries to this list MUST be
retained.



SPECIAL THANKS

Special thanks are in order to the original compiler of this list, John De
Armond. In the revival of this registry, his original one-man crusade is
both recognized and appreciated. The anti-DARE community is indebted to his
contribution. Also, appreciated is Nicholas Merrill for his Urine-Test
listserv, which is provided as a public service by Calyx Internet Access
Corp.

IMPORTANT NOTICE - 09/06/93

All DOE Federal Contractors will be required to negotiate some version of
substance abuse testing as part of a national program. Employees at SLAC,
Stanford University, have learned that many different accomodations to this
requirement have been achieved depending on workplace risks. The DOE rule
which applies appeared in the Federal Register on 22 July 1992, page 32652,
(Vol 57, No 141)
