f it comes out in one of those sources, please do let me know. You don't need that column to come out in the NYT to establish whether Jimmy Massey exists, as a human being, a resident of the United States of America, and that is all you and I are talking about. I made sure that "the Massey charges" were not the issue, didn't I, Bill, when I posted this? You posted, "The Jimmy Massey character is a hoax." This would seem to imply that there is no Jimmy Massey of Waynesvill, NC who made the statements at the link below. Is that what you meant when you posted that "The Jimmy Massey character is a hoax"? Or did you mean some other, more 'special,' thing? Bill, I think that perhaps you are changing your definition of 'hoax' to a more 'special' one! Which means that you are retracting your earlier position that "The Jimmy Massey character is a hoax" meant that he didn't exist. Right? You retract? It's now about whether you believe his charges or not? Do I have this correct? :)

Bill! Do these PM's I just received persuade you that Massey exists? (Oh, I shouldn't post this until we've made the bet, should I?!) : ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ thesylvaherald.com Things and Stuff: 07/19/01 Notes from our business community - and everywhere else THE MARINES ... have landed at 158 East Sylva Shopping Center, and the situation is well in hand. Marine recruiter Staff Sgt. Jimmy Massey has relocated to his new office in Suite C there from an office in Waynesville. Massey is settled in and is ready to further the lives of young men and women who are up to the challenge of becoming Marines. Anyone interested in finding out more about a career in the Marines can contact Massey at 631-2810. His pager number is 642-5043. ---- From: The information clearing house... a longer account re: Jimmy Massey's experiences -- which also mentions about him having been a "recruiter" as mentioned in the above entry from the Sylva Herald. informationclearinghouse.info And in case you doubt that that reporter exists...he's from "The Enterprise Mountainer" (see themountaineer.com mentioned at the bottom of the 2nd reference) and just had this article posted today (on an unrelated topic) themountaineer.com. Link to the main webpage of the mountaineer where you can get to the same article by clicking on "No Tax Hike Anticipated". themountaineer.com
