Nothing wrong with catching real spies and throwing them under the jail house...But that's a far cry from making folks unemployable because of their political believes and organizational memberships...;-) - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of Eric Welch Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 10:25 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] PHOTOGRAPHY; PHOTOGRAPHERS; Leicas A recent PBS piece on the spys and the atom bomb projects back in the 40s showed how there were many, many people in the U.S. government who were spying for the Soviet Government.
