Thank you, Charles. I'm delighted to be here, in awe of the folks here, their work and insight, and hope that I and E Pluribus Unum am up to the challenge of particpation.
It strikes me that the work we do here and elsewhere is of the highest importance ... requiring the highest standards .. and also requiring a serious -- indeed, heavy -- commitment.
When I think of the work that has been done by many ... and the price that has been paid by many -- deaths, suicides, ruined careers, I can only throw my little oar into the war and try to pull ny own weight, in unison.
I agree with your take on the subtleties of the disinformation game, noting that there are several good examples and explanations of the same game in Baker's "Family of Secrets".
