Sifting through Shimmy’s old emails, I came across messages back and forth between him and my nemesis, New York Times technology scribe John Markoff. The two of them had been exchanging emails going back to early 1991 about me—trading bits of information on what I was up to, as in an exchange in early ’92 that showed Shimmy had gone to the trouble of researching online for my ham radio license, call sign N6NHG. He also emailed Markoff asking whether the FCC had a rule against issuing ham radio licenses to a person convicted of a felony.
