dear John Young Architect,

sir, i hope i've confirmed who i am. i'm 41 years old and can't
remember how i've referred to a girl in high school.

you fellows must be a lot younger than i am :)

i was wondering if i could reference you in an article i'm writing for
vanity fair (hoping they will publish it) concerning my fib and how it
grew on the internet.

i could reference you anonymously or by a web name or by your real name.

i could really use the help and would really appreciate it.

unfortunately, although you've nearly convinced me otherwise, i really
was never a cia agent. i wish i had been, as my life course isn't all
that interesting :(

that's the truth.

i'm sorry for any inconvenience this has caused to you, i didn't mean
any harm, and i hope i can rectify it by some publicity for you
through the article, and by an apology, which i make here :)

yours,

robert

Robert,

Your Vanity Fair story needs dissents from me and couple of others
to what you write to be included with the article. I assume the story 
will be a tradecraft lie, fit for a spook looking for a platform to mindfuck 
the public.

This exchange will be published on Cryptome.

Regards,

John
