More proof that Charles Platt is a pathological liar and a crook

The pathological liar Charles Platt <cp(a)panix.com> posted the following racist garbage to the "cypherpunks(a)toad.com" mailing list: > I've been writing up my week in Anguilla, including a digested version of > the interviews I did with the Minister of Finance and the owner of the > local bank. I append this text below. Please note that although I am It was very poor judgment on Minister's part to meet with the pathological liar and an alcoholic - Charles Platt. > distributing it via this list, I still consider it copyrighted material, > for what that's worth. It will eventually be published, in some form, in a > magazine, as part of a much longer article. Right - Chris Platt wants everybody to believe that he's a journalist. Just ask all the people on sci.cryo who think he's just a lying crook. If the drunkard publishes this crap, it'll be at his own expense. > More to the point, this is UNCORRECTED text, probably containing spelling > errors, and Vince Cate or Bob Hettinga may well be able to correct some > factual errors, in which case I encourage them to do so. > > --Charles Platt What a maroon.

It was very foolish of Lynwood ever to talk to Charles Platt, because Charles Platt is a crackpot and a pathological liar. > "Anguilla used to have a large number of banks," he > tells me.

"I think the > main barriers to financial transactions on the net are fear, > uncertainty, and greed. People think they are protecting > their existing highly profitable operations instead of > realizing that if they open the doors they would have ten > times as much business." Charles Platt was drunk like a skunk when Lynwood allegedly said this. Did he bring a tape recorder or did he just make up the whole quote? > And Bell outlines a vision that sounds remarkably > similar to Cate's.

I bet Lynwood is going to be very embarrased when he finds out that he was interviewed by a crook and a pathological liar. In fact, Lynwood already announced that he never said anything remotely resembling the long quotes Charles Platt attributed to him. Platt just made up all these quotes. Liar! > "Quite possible," claims Bell. "Tax authorities always > ask if there is 'mind and management' in a country, or just > nominees doing things. A server here, with transactions going > through it, adds to the mind and management. If an offer of > money is made on Vince's web site, under British common law, > the offer was made in Anguilla.

(He isn't interested in individuals > wanting private bank accounts, though; corporate customers > only need apply.) Of course Lynwood doesn't want Charles Platt's bank account. The money Charles Platt wanted to depost in Anguila was stolen from Platt's former business partners and clients of his fraudelent "cryocare" business. Charles Platt is a crook and is primarily interested in money laundering. Lynwood stopped talking to Charles Platt after he realized that he was drunk like a skunk. > Meanwhile, the Honorary Victor Banks, Minister of > Finance, Planning, and Economic Development in the Government > of Anguilla, is also hanging out at the party, a barrel- Charles Platt is so stupid, he can't spell "Honorable". > chested man wearing an open-necked checked shirt and > brown pants. He's treating all the guests with scrupulous > respect--even the hairiest types who look twisted and > paranoid, because for all he knows, these people are helping > to mold online commerce, and Anguilla wants a piece of it. The only person who wasn't treated with any respect was Charles Platt himself, because the twisted and paranoid crackpot got drunk and was shouting obscenities at the guests. Anybody who refused to talk to Charles Platt because he was drunk and is known to be a liar and a crook got labeled "twisted and paranoid". > Banks tells me he is computer-literate (he owns a > Gateway 2000, "with a Pentium processor," he adds quickly). > Then he trots out a string of earnest platitudes.

We have mutual legal assistance with the U.S. that > allows them to get information from us about any clientele > involved in criminal activity, although they can't go on > fishing expeditions to find out about tax avoidance." Poor Banks really regrets having spoken to the racist lying crackpot Charles Platt. In another article Platt wrote that Banks isn't fit to be a minister because he knows too much: > Banks seems blissfully unaware that most of the > cryptonerds around him probably see nothing wrong with money > laundering and illegal drugs, and view all governments as an > archaic encrumbrance ripe for demolition. I can't see Victor > Banks sympathizing with this libertarian attitude, and indeed > it turns out that he obtained his masters degree in economics > at The New School for Social Research in New York City, where > the graduate faculty promotes Marxist economic theory, > attracting many students from some Latin American countries. Right - Charles Platt is a high school dropout who bought his B.A. in journalism from a mail order college advertized in the National Enquirer. Platt is threatened by "spics" and "niggers" who graduated high school and know more than he does about economic theories. > When I mention this to Banks, he simply denies it. "My > education was not left-wing," he says. But I happen to teach > at The New School's computer lab, so I have personal The fact that New School has a drunkard teaching students how to insert a floppy in a PC and how to bring up Microsoft Word reflects very badly on this school.

On the It takes a very sick mind to conclude that since 20 years ago the Minister of Finance went to the same school that later was foolish enough to hire Charles Platt to teach Microsoft Office, and Platt has noticed Marxists there, that the Minister is anything close to a Marxist or to assume anything at all about Anguilla. After all, Platt is currently near this school, so by his twisted and paranoid logic he must have caught the infection too. > other hand, Anguilla's government doesn't seek competitive > bids for contracts, maintains a state-owned radio station, and > allows Cable and Wireless to have a comfortable monopoly The USA had a monopoly phone company not that long ago. > of the phone system, with the result that calling rates are > extortionate and you have to wait three months to get a > phone installed.

Who cares what Charles Platt thinks - he's just an alcoholic crackpot. Perpetually drunk, Charles Platt has been spamming Usenet with ads for his phoney 'cryocare' business - freezeing dead bodies so they can be revived in the future. Many former business partners and victims of his scams have exposed Charles Platt as a liar and a crook. Now Charles Platt wants to diversify into money laundering. Someone, call the FBI.

Ecash Brain Tennis
by Roderick Simpson 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Heya. We've got an interesting debate going in Brain Tennis on the implications of Ecash - Robert Hettinga of the Digital Commerce Society and Kawika Daguio of the American Bankers Association. Bob thinks ecash (and specifically digital bearer certificates) will lead to the extinction of government and other financial institutions, while Kawika contends a need for trust will always be prevalent and ecash will therefore only strengthen existing financial structures. The debate continues through next week - take a look at: http://www.braintennis.com/ and post in the public Threads at: http://www.braintennis.com/cgi-bin/interact/replies_all?msg.39955 Best, Rod Roderick Simpson rod(a)wired.com Associate Producer...............The HotWired Network www.braintennis.com www.wiredsource.com

No, they really don't want any money laundering. Maybe they were holding off on that law change so that the USA gov could run a money laundering bank here for awhile. But the US seems to think their bank has done enough money laundering and they shut it down. -- Vince

March This by Lewis Koch CWD Special Correspondent Chicago --You better not hack, better not phreak -- The President's Commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection [http://www.pccip.gov] is coming to town. This behind closed doors Commission holds the key to America's most precious civil liberty chastity belt: Privacy. And now it's going on tour. That right, the Commission is coming to a town near you, a dog-and-pony road trip whose tour jackets are read: MADE in the NSA. The Commission's goal during the tour is to hear from the people, to collect ideas about how to protect the critical infrastructure from... from... why the newest threat (ominous music) to our national well being now that the Sovs are gone, Saddam's waiting for a bullet and the Chicoms are turning capitalists -- (scary music swells) - "cyber-terrorists" attacking our so-called "critical infrastructures" through devious computer hacking raids. Honest. And yet, even as members of the Commission smile politely and nod their graying heads, they are busy trying to figure out (read: Justify) just how to rewrite U.S. laws which would lift, or at least modify, the decades old ban that keeps our nation's top spooks from the National Security Agency from gathering intelligence on you and me. Which is not to say these kats don't have an ironic sense of humor. One of their first public debuts will be in San Francisco during next week's Computers, Freedom and Privacy conference. Of course, if you can make it to CFP, you might try the Los Angeles, California, Public Works Hearing Room, City Hall, room 350, third floor, starting at 10 a.m. and if you can't grok with the freaks in L.A. or the cypherpunks in San Francisco, perhaps you can make it to Commission's other scheduled stops in Atlanta, Houston, St. Louis or Boston. (Call now, operators are standing by, 202-828-8869, ask for Liz.) Between all his strenuous fund raising efforts, President Clinton last July found the time to form a this Commission to inquire into the question of whether this nation has protected its precious physical and cyber innards, namely electric power, gas and oil, telecommunications, banking and finance, transportation, water supply, emergency services, and of course, continuity of government services, and...the Internet. By this time the Government has caught on to the fact that the Internet is no longer a fun toy for academics and young people but rather but serious business for people who bustle around or sleep over at the White House. There is money to be made on the Net, power to be wielded. There are also some big bucks to be spent, billions maybe, on what will almost certainly be efforts to "make things safe" from cyberterrorism. The most important job this Commission, however, will be to direct attention away from the real issues: who was/is responsible for developing weak, vulnerable infrastructures in this country in the first place. (Pay no attention to the men behind the curtain, the men who built the crumbling infrastructures of Internet Central in the first place.) Second, while it would be foolish to deny that problems exists with thieves who use computers and cyberspace, where some child pornography and a whole hell of a lot of money laundering takes place, cyberspace is merely a reflection of society, the good and the bad and a lot in between. What then, do "cyber threats "actually look like? Who might carry them out. How? Where? And who will lead the effort to gather, collate, fold and staple all this valuable information? A recognized Internet expert? Someone with extensive experience in networks and cross-platform computing? Nope... not for Bill Clinton. Just wouldn't do. No, sir, what we need to combat terrorism is, well, a goddamn, real life combat veteran, by gwad! Enter Robert T. March, chairman of this Infrastructure Protection Task Force. You can call him "Bob" or simply "The General" will do because, well, that's what he did most of his life and besides, it has a real nice ring to it. The executive order creating this Commission states that the chairman be "from outside the Federal government," which Marsh is, technically, since he retired from the military in 1989. He still collects his "inside" the Federal government military retirement pay though. Question is, do you want someone who might played a part creating the mess, now deciding how to fix it? The background information on General Marsh is kinda skimpy, at least for someone who spent the vast majority of his adult life, rising to the rank of General. He's 73, a West Point graduate, a resident Alexandria, a tony Virginia suburb a stone's throw from Washington, D.C. "His last assignment was serving as the commander of the Air Force Systems Command, where he directed the research, development, test and acquisition of aerospace systems for the Air Force," reads his brief bio on the Web page. So we can at least legitimately guess that he was heavy into some kinds of high tech R&D and Procurement stuff, pushing paper and awarding big time contracts. It seems that following his retirement, Marsh marched right back into research, development, test and acquisition, only, well, on the other side. "He served as the first chairman of Thiokol Corp [http://www.thiokol.com/]" his bio reads, "as it transitioned from Morton -Thiokol in 1989 to separate company status." (Remember the Challenger Disaster in 1986? [http://www.fas.org/spp/51L.html] Can you spell O-rings? If you click on the company's Web page history section, [http://www.thiokol.com/History/History.htm#HistoryOfCompany] this seems to be a non-event. Could there have been two Morton-Thiokol companies?) Marsh is a very active senior, serving on the board and as a stockholder active in a surprising number of other high tech ventures, some or all of which could conceivably wind up providing all kinds of high priced of technical goodies to combat bad guys bent on physical and cyber destruction of our dear, up-until-now unprotected infrastructures. And according to public information office of the Commission, Marsh intends on keeping his corporate goodies "but at a reduced compensation" because he was merely "designated" by the President -- which in White House jargon means...whatever the hell one wants it to mean-- as long as you don't have to give up the stock and the options and the director's fees (Being "designated" means never having to say I'm sorry.). Marsh also has strong ties to CAE Electronics, [http://www.cae.ca/cae_electronics_inc/cae_electronics_inc.html] a new U.S. company which markets high tech stuff. CAE has a Canadian papa, which, among the high tech goodies it markets are "Air Traffic Management Systems" and "Engineering and Software Support for Weapons Systems." So, having someone on the Director's payroll in the States, someone with 35 years of experience in the United States Air Force, makes good, er, business sense. Marsh also owns 40,000 shares and makes $8,000.00 a year plus expenses for his directorship in Teknowledge, [http://www.teknowledge.com/company/company.html] a Palo Alto high tech firm parked behind a fence and leafy trees. Teknowledge is very interested in communications and the Department of Defense. Here is how the company describes some of what it does: "Since the DoD and many commercial businesses plan to conduct large-scale operations over international computer networks similar to the Internet, much of the Teknowledge's current and future project focus is in providing network associate systems to make access to knowledge easier, and network accelerators to make knowledge access over networks faster and more cost effective." So, we're taking marketing here, not rocket science; it's easy to see how Teknowledge might be a "good fit" for any computer infrastructure "hardening" contracts. Cyberwarriors already have a name for it: "Minimum Essential Information Infrastructure (MEII) also known as "emergency lanes on the information highway." Marsh is also a director of Comverse Government Systems Corp.[http://www.cis.comverse.com/]. Among the things that Comverse makes are digital monitoring systems for law enforcement and intelligence agencies. Oh? Yes. Digital wiretapping, monitoring, as in...why...yes...of course. The perfect party gift for the FBI in search of the hackers who put on those nasty things on the Justice Department Web site. Marsh also is a trustee of MITRE Corp, which, we see [http://www.fast.org/irp/contract/m.htm] is into air defense and other command, control, communications, and intelligence systems used by Department of Defense clients. The company's ties to the defense intelligence community go back to the late 1950, with project code names such as HAVE STARE and STEEL TRAP. And when the General takes his World Tour back home D.C. will we ever see it's findings? The Commission isn't bound by the Freedom of Information Act, so we don't have those thumb screws to turn. However, the Commission is governed by the Federal Advisory Committee Act, which, in part, is there to "to open to public scrutiny the manner in which government agencies obtain advise from private individuals." Of course, this situation being one of vital national security interest, cyber-terrorists and all tha t, don't expect a flood of documents and sunshine from the General. Apart from the General, there's an interesting internal conflict on the Commission. You see, though it's headed by a "civilian," it's run by the FBI, which doesn't get along with the CIA and neither get along with all that well with the NSA. It's a schizophrenic role for the FBI, to be sure. Actually, there are people in the FBI who at least know the right questions to ask, that's a start. The problem is whether their questions can be heard over the din of furious, clueless answers shouted out by Dir. Louis Freeh, James Kallestrom and others in their own agency. So, come on out and give the General a few choice thoughts... and don't forget to call to reserve your spot in line... government operators are standing by, ahem, from the hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST only, of course. But hurry, this country is not sold in stores. --------------------------------- Lewis Koch <lzkoch(a)mcs.net>KS ********************************************************************** Charles Anthony 612 871 4090 http://www.info-nation.com http://www.info-nation.com/rates.html
