Very good post! I can not believe that the newsletter never responded, that is incredible! By the way, in my travels, I too had an experience with a person named William Douglas Hazelton. This is the man I believe that was referred to a little while ago on this list (in post numbers 112, 260 and 298) as being associated with one of the firms. My experience with this (as I knew him) Doug Hazelton began in I believe 1990 when he was the president of an Engineering firm named Unison, headquartered in a town just outside Seattle, called Bothell, WA. We had contracted this Unison to build a prototype for my company, of an onsite printing Kiosk we were developing at the time. My experience with Doug Hazelton was not favorable either. The cost spiraled by over 500% of the bid and we still got a poorly designed and poorly built product. Delivered with bugs in the software and hardware that took thousands of hours to repair. One law firm that I used later for some business projects had three lawsuits against the Unison company at the same time. He left WA to become one of the spammers that people often talk about and I lost track of him. A few years ago I saw an article in the paper where he was arrested for taking deposits on leases for computers and not delivering the computers. The article in the Seattle Times said he was in partnership with a man that had sold stock in a vending enterprise that vended video rentals. He sold I understand a few million dollars worth of stock and left the state. All of the above is from personal experience and I have only the newspapers word for the balance of the infomation. However, I personally believe all of the above is true.
