Is Sarah McEwan also known as Linda Mack? Go to this page and scroll down to Linda Mack on page XX. Hover over the email icon. It's the same email address as on the domain registration. I just got this tip today.

I know a little bit about Linda Mack. She was using NameBase on floppy disks back in 1989-90 (in 1989 it was called SpyBase). There is an outstanding invoice for pages I sent to her at ABC News in London for $11.90, dated 1990-01-22.

She lost a close friend on Pan Am 103, an American student from Brookline, Massachusetts, who had been at King's College. At that time she was pursuing a philosophy Ph.D. at King's College, Cambridge, but dropped out. She was 27 years old (which makes her about 45 now).

Linda Mack became deeply involved in the Lockerbie investigation, as a freelancer stringing for Pierre Salinger and ABC. She called me in Arlington, Virginia on 1989-08-11 to tell me that she had been pursuing a rumor about someone who knew all those spooks were on the flight, and who told the Iranians. At one point she contacted a CIA spokesperson. Not only did the CIA deny it, but she said they dispatched John Scali to call her and tell her to back off. (Scali was very high at ABC and was a special consultant on foreign affairs, and then ambassador to the U.N., under Richard Nixon. He has been spook-connected his entire career. He died on 1995-10-09.)

Holy crap, I'd probably start using another name too at that point.

This was a facinating post, Daniel. It does tie up with one of her earlier posts on the Pan Am 103 article, (a post which was discussed here on WR a few days ago): it indicated that the Libyans were not guilty. This was interpreted as a defence for Muslim terrorists in general... if I recollect correctly. I didn´t´post it then, but I reacted against this conclusion, as I recall that some of the Lockerbie relatives (still to this day?) do not believe that Libya was behind it, but instead point the finger at Iran.
One question: did Linda Mack teach English as a foreign language "all over Europe" in "her twenties"? Slimvirgin posted that she had.
She also posted inf. which made it clear that she knew about what they were teaching in journalism in the US in the 70´s.

On another note: Slim has also made quite a few edits relating to substance abuse, and how to beat it, like Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder, Rat Park, Lauren Slater. Seen together, her edits here (especially in the last two articles) make it seem relatively "easy" to quit any dependency. (And that is not the experience of those I know who have tried to quit smoking wink.gif )

Also: shouldn´t we move all this to the main S.V thread?

I don't really see how it could seen as a defense for muslim terrorists given that the alternative theories variously indict Palestinians/Syria/Iran. huh.gif
