I took a series of photos of you, and ran across this one just recently. I thought I had one of you standing in front of a sign saying "Stop When Flashing" that I thought would be memorable (!), but haven't tracked it down. In the spirit of your button ["Come Clean"], I wanted to tell you that at the time we met I was an undercover investigator working for the Church of Scientology's Guardians' Office, who were going quite insane trying to figure out who wrote "The Awful Truth About Scientology" in the Realist. I failed to get that from you, but we did smoke a joint together, and that was happily the start of my gradual exit from the Church. Drove them crazy. Long story. I've always admired your spirit, and read your recent AlterNet piece on Manson with some fascination. I was wondering when Patty Hearst was going to pop up. Anyhow, embarrassed as I am about the circumstances of our meeting back then, I was able to leave that outfit in the nick of time. Running a medicinal Cannabis lab now...and I'm the resident chemist at Sasha [inventor of Ecstasy] Shulgin's lab. Long. Strange. Trip.
