The trouble is that this becomes very immotive as involvement
increases.I guess George feels that WKPP should be covert to protect
their interests.

This is part of the trouble. There have been some pretty nasty posts
floating around that to the casual visitor give a bad picture. There
really is no way around this (don't give me any of this PGP crap). To
use electronic mail posted to a public forum as a lever for anything is
a poor method. There have been a couple of instances of libel
proceedings based upon comments of this nature - to no avail.
