    I found it in the ACT library system - saw it a few times - A scene that sticks in my mind was him on ph to US State Dept trying to get switch folkies to get the Sec of State - Somebody was telling him that he had a problem due to his releases.
    He was insisting that THEY had the problem and kept asking to be put thru to SecState -

    I always thought of him as a jumped up hacker.

    I think on the longer term the State Dept switch people have been right.
    But standing back from it all - if I was granted Earth Gov powers for a day I would send him back to Oz.
    On condition he stopped hacking.
