Under "Publications" he lists that infamous 50-page screed against the modern world, which The New York Times and The Washington Post agreed to print in exchange for Kaczynski's promise to end his bombing campaign. ....
Kaczynski is not the only former Harvard student to be locked up. Henry David Thoreau spent a night in the Concord, Mass., jail rather than pay the poll tax. Folk singer and political activist Pete Seeger was sentenced to a year in prison for refusing to name names before the House Un-American Activities Committee.

I never understand how people can come up with these conclusions. The flow of logic must be . . . interesting.
1. Come to hate the current economic system.
2. Mail bombs to people who have virtually no control over it.
3. ? ? ?
4. Overturned the entire global economy and built a utopia of which I am the king!
