Both of his [Terrence J Wilkinson] phone numbers have Los Angeles area codes but an identity check through Know-X today revealed no record of anyone named Terrance J. Wilkinson ever having lived in LA or surrounding communities.
His email address turns out to be a blind forward to a free email service where anyone can sign up and get an email account. Because it was not one of the usual "free" services like Hotmail, Yahoo or such, I did not recognize it as one (although you'd think that someone like me would have known better).
When I looked up truthout.org (the website who sent your work to JapanToday) on a whois type search engine, I was given this:

Notice that Marc Ash of TRUTHOUT.ORG lists their organization as having a Los Angeles addy. Look it up on your own and see if you recognize any of those phone numbers.
As I already pointed out, look at the registration date which is a day prior to the attacks on the US.
Note also that "Marc Ash" has a nontypical way of spelling "Los Angeles." He, she or it spelled it Los Angelos. The same spelling quirk occurs onhis older ArtFix.com web site whois registration info.
The odd spelling isn't all that unusual, but it is not the way we spelled it in school. Is this odd spelling indicitave of "Marc Ash" being Latin/Hispanic?
Just curious.
