Great response!
AMF indeed.
Having perused the thread, I could not help but notice the many references to 007, Patrick McGoohan, and other secret agent types.
Frankly, Berger strikes me as more of a Maxwell Smart personna.
I wonder if he uses a shoe phone...
Maxwell Smart for sure, or “Double Naught Spy” Jethro Bodine.
He never spent a day in the military or LE, so I’m guessing he was not in the CIA either, so he’s just a nobody wannabee gumshoe freelance writer for hire. With a cool website named “Intelwire!” Whoah!
