Electra,

Brief me:  do I need to worry or not?
Rheingold and I encountered each other
many years ago on the "WELL" in Sausalito,
to which I dialed in.  I would have to
guess that he is pro-government, if not
heavily funded by them.  I tried to share
my 16th amendment research with their staff
once, and it fell on deaf ears, or terrified
leftists.  Please keep this note to yourself.
I don't want their brand of hacking to contend
with;  their people have real computer talent.

/s/ Paul Mitchell
