No, sauropod and I just happened to be part of the best-timed freep ever-—outside the CBS office in DC, immediately after the Rathergate sh!t hit the fan (and I do mean “immediately”, I think it was that Tuesday, with the fake memos being shown on Sunday night. There were maybe 10-11 of us, and we were outnumbered by the press by about 4 to 1.
Glad to have been a part of it all, but we’re not going to take any credit for the discovery/debunking.
First he started attacking Robert Spencer. He then used information he gained through his PayPal donation system to “out” a few Lizards that disagreed with him - at this point I surmised that CJ had lost it, and haven’t been back there since.
My mistake, it was a whole WEEK later. It took that long for the spit to hit the fan nationally.
Here you are:

And Buckhead was the original discoverer.

Glad you and pod were able to be a part of that historical event, regardless. How you guys doing? Were you in DC for 9-12?
backhoe, you ROCK! Thanks for the link to your outstanding archiving. It is now saved for future reference so I do not mess up again! ;*)
It was still FR that broke Rathergate. ;*)
You give me too much credit. I was not directly involved in the debunking.
I *was* involved in heckling the SeeBS Washington offices at the time.
