It seems the general hostility level seems to creep ever upward.  It is onely 
a personal opinion, but I think all the indicators (malitia movement, 
"random" acts of violence by angry individuals, mass layoffs, etc.) point to 
the US crossing the destabilization threshold shortly before the next 
election.  What a &^*$%#@  mess.
       I need to tell you there was a slight error in the database postings 
you related.  At the end of RB-FOIA.ASC "in his own case file -- in the Board 
of Social Services" should read "in the folder containing his complaint 
against a psychologist filed with the Board of Examiners in Psychology" or 
something equivalent.
       Are you aware of the possible hearings on criminal conduct by child 
abuse "expert" by the House Subcommittee on Crime and Criminal Justice?  If 
not I I will post what I have.  I received the info from the FMS 
ganization.
       I have done some more analysis on the Crime Victims Reparation Board 
data.  Twelve child abuse accusation mills (8% of all therapy service 
claimants) received 63% of therapy service payments, nearly $200,000.  This 
may be sufficient to start some criminal investigations.  There is no 
reasonable way of dealing with these people.  A few hundred of them are going 
to have to be sent to prison before the rest of them "get it."
