Some friends and some work. No clue what the problem is, it just started about weeks ago , they don't go into my junk file either. Very frustrating. Hard to believe it's been a year. RIP JJ.

Ask the NSA...I'm sure they know.
It sounds like JJ had one hell of a lot of books!
Of course, he was SUPPOSED to also be in charge of all of Mae Brussells papers and books....but...
I didn't know he had obtained those of McGehee - they could be quite a treasure trove too!
I'm glad the Hidden History Museum is going ahead...its location is near the center, just on the other side of Arlington and near a metro stop.
Yes, hard to believe one year ago. It was a shock then and when I think of it it is still a shock. Few realize just how much he did and how he was a kind of glue to an all too fractured research community. He knew all the greats and they knew him. He is irreplaceable. A great loss and the loss of a personal friend of mine.
RIP John...you did more than almost anyone I can think of.
A life well lived - and not a moment wasted.
Only wish you could have stuck around a while longer.
Greatly missed and not forgotten.
