Does anyone, especially in Canada, ever noticed that them or their local net friends had their snail mail opened?
A friend of mine has his regularly opened; he complained to Canada Post three times, but it stills goes on AFAIK. He is pissed off at me, convinced that the forwarding of Jim Bell's AP related articles is what justified the mail opening. Actually, he does not even reply to my e-mails anymore. We used to be great friends... Neither of us ever engaged in any subversive activities or are involved in illegal actions. It seems that FUD got him. ...sigh...
It does sound like the guy is overreacting a bit. However, I don't know much about Quebec politics; with that close vote recently on separation, perhaps they are getting nervous about things. Is he in Quebec? I can say, however, that I've never gotten any kind of "official" feedback on the subject, not that I really expect it. I've gotten a few inquiries which on the surface appear to be innocuous, but which I suspect have hidden motives. This could be a little hidden official research, or maybe just self-motivated individuals trying to do a "good deed." It doesn't matter; my idea doesn't need any secrets in order to be successful.
