2600 ain't the chess club......

I can't think of anyone who hasn't done something illegal.
I can't think of any MS windows computer that doesn't have some illegal software on it. Let's face it, we are all criminals(even your mom, her coworker and son). Did you wear your seatbelt? Do you ever speed? Did you use the cross walk? Did you download or share any MP3s? Everyone breaks laws, its just a matter of how many, and what laws. Not all laws are good, and some will be broken without even knowing it. There is no way anyone can know all the laws there are.

I've never heard of anyone that didn't get a job because they attended 2600 meets. That's just crazy talk. Even if the feds where monitoring the 2600 meets, what are the chances a employer would get a hold of that information?
0-none? I love that "you'll never get a job if *****" argument. It is complete crap. Most background checks will only turn up arrests, finacial info, and former employer stuff, unless you are trying to get a top secret security clearence. Then they might go talk to the neighbors, friends friends, and find out you are a radical 2600 freak. Even then, I don't think anyone would care. They may just ask some questions.
