...MR. STANSBURY, THE SECURITY DIRECTOR OF LAWRENCE WALSH'S OFFICE, AND I WERE GETTING QUITE FRIENDLY WHILE WE BOTH WONDERED HOW A REGISTERED LETTER CAN BE 'LOST.'
AS YOU SEE, WE WERE TALKING ON A REGULAR BASIS FOR A WHILE THEN.
AND, EVEN IF THE DELIVERY WAS ONLY 'DELAYED'--BUT CANADA POST FELT OBLIGED TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THE COST OF REPLACEMENT--THERE IS A PERIOD OF TIME THERE WHEN, IF THOSE CONTENTS WERE IN THE WRONG HANDS...THEY COULD HAVE BEEN PHOTOCOPIED AT, SAY, ONE OF THOSE 5-CENT-A-PAGE PLACES ALL OVER NORTH AMERICA.

...METHINKS "EVERYONE DOES NOT KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT 'IRAN-CONTRA'."

BUT MAYBE WE SHOULD CHECK, EH?
LATER THIS YEAR I'LL POST ON-LINE THE FULL TEXT OF MY CHRISTMAS, 1987 STATEMENT TO SOUTH AFRICA'S P.W. BOTHA, CONTAINING WHAT I THINK "ALL OF US" SOON ARE GOING TO UNDERSTAND MAY BE THE ONLY TRUTHFUL SUMMARY OF THIS "INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMATIC WORK...ON A DIRECT BASIS" IN AND SINCE 1978.

AND THEN, COMPLETELY CONSISTENT WITH THAT "DEMOCRATIC VALUE" CLARIFIED BY THOMAS JEFFERSON AND REFERRED TO BY ME IN THE COURSE OF DOING THIS WORK, YOU CAN EACH DECIDE FOR YOURSELF WHETHER YOU HAVE THE TRUTH OR IF YOU NEED TO HAVE IT.

IT IS MY BELIEF THAT MANY PEOPLE THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE DIED OVER THIS ISSUE.
AND THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO WOULD, GIVEN THEIR PASTS, BE WILLING TO CONTINUE THE TRADITION.

I AM ALSO POSTING THE LIST OF CONTENTS FOR THE FEBRUARY 7, 1992 REGISTERED LETTER TO LAWRENCE WALSH AND A SCAN OF THE RESPONSE FROM HIS OFFICE TO THE CONTENTS OF THE 3 SUBMISSIONS I MADE TO HIM.

AND AFTER THE BOTHA STATEMENT TEXT IS OUT THERE FOR AWHILE...I'LL POST THE TEXTS OF ALL 3 STATEMENTS TO LAWRENCE WALSH.
