COOK, TIMOTHY M. FOLEY, BARBARA GOLDEN, and HENRY M. KLUEPFEL, ÿðÿ ÿDefendants. _________________________________________________________ ÿðÿ DECLARATIONÿOFÿELIZABETHÿ McCOY I, Elizabeth McCoy, hereby declare that: ÿ1. I am a plaintiff in the above-captioned matter and submit this affidavit in opposition to the Motion of the United States for Summary Judgment. ÿ2. I am an adult resident of Dover, New Hampshire. ÿ3. I am a student at the University of New Hampshire. ÿ4. I was introduced to Steve Jackson Games Inc. and the Illuminati BBS about four years ago and have been an active user of the BBS since then. The BBS is a forum for me to communicate and associate with other people who share my major hobby interest in "gaming." ÿ5. Since before the Illuminati BBS was shut down on March 1, 1990, I have been the systems operator of the Illuminati sub-board known as The Illuminati University. The discussion on this board was and continues to be a humorous, ongoing parody of a university, where the participants assumed the roles of fictional students, faculty, and administrators. The board is a cross between a free-form online roleplaying game and multi-author fiction. 6. I am also a regular user of the electronic mail service provided by the BBS. ÿ7. I had electronic communications stored on the Illuminati BBS at the time it was shut down on March 1, 1990. ÿ8. I sent electronic mail to Illuminati users with userids Elric and Gremlyn on or about February 14, 1990, and February 25, 1990, respectively. I never received responses to this electronic mail. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on: 9/26/91 (signed) Elizabeth McCoy
