As a matter of clarifying an issue of fact , Ken is absolutely right in
saying that what I referred to was Mr. Quispe writing to the journalist of
the American Reporter and not in any way to him, Ken Campbell. No one with
a bit of common sense could have the slightests doubt about that since, as
Ken points out, the copy of the offending "journalistic piece" by the
Pinkerton agency electronic magazine is the only issue being discussed in my
mailer and it is actually reprinted there as an attached file.
To create confussion of the issues, make wild allegations, calling everyone
who criticises them in the slighttest a "traitor" - and to blow gigantic
smoke-screens - are well know phenomena in those delirious moments in the
process of denial in the dying, and is the hallmark of those entering final
agony.
