Interesting point. Someone earlier mentioned ELF, though I'm still leaning to ME, myself. But tarot would fit in more with the type you've mentioned.

I wonder what the note says...my local tv news reported there was "considerable text." Seems an unlikely move for ME terrorist. I'm betting on a Uni-sniper type who wants to get his/her message out.

Like alQaeda, the ELF creeps are all holier-than-thou types, playing God would come quite naturally to them. Interesting that Moose was in Oregon on his last assignment, perhaps he is familiar with tactics of ecofascists. Also, any big WTO protest brings freaks from other countries...which might account for peculiar wording, "dear policeman." We shall see.

I'm sort of in love with my Unisniper theory...looked up the Unibomber Manifesto and it fits right in. You can read the entire abominable thing at at http://www.ed.brocku.ca/~rahul/Misc/unibomber.html

"4. We therefore advocate a revolution against the industrial system. This revolution may or may not make use of violence: it may be sudden or it may be a relatively gradual process spanning a few decades. We can't predict any of that. But we do outline in a very general way the measures that those who hate the industrial system should take in order to prepare the way for a revolution against that form of society. This is not to be a POLITICAL revolution. Its object will be to overthrow not governments but the economic and technological basis of the present society."
