For a fellow Canadian to act like a some kiddie hitler when Canadian's are well known to be tolerant of other countries, religion, race, and sexual orintation, Sarah is by FAR the most ignorant asshole b*tch I have ever had the unpleasure of knowing.

Yup I'm Canadian... Born in Kelowna, BC. Sarah your one sick disgusting human. Words cannot explain how much I loth you as a fellow Canadian..

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 think that Daniel Brandt got a hit. Sarah McEwan doesn't add up, but Linda Mack does.

And whilst it looks like (someone named Joe, last name redacted) might not have been totally on the money, it was a pretty good guess too, I think.

I am willing to agree that Linda Mack is our hit.

But now what do we do with that information? We need to prove that she's done something wrong.

Uhh think here......

What are the odds of 2 people in 3 countries all having a link about Jews?

What if Linda Mack stole Sara's Identity to hide ? Or used that info to fake another person? After all the CIA was after Linda Mack and her investigating the Lookerbie Crash.....

There is a link here I am missing... I just can't place this. Why would SV specifically use a name in Canada that has anti-jewish views like she does? Why does she know so much about the Lookerbie Crash?

It should be fairly clear that Linda Mack is SlimVirgin. Now, what do we do with that information?

My first suggestion is to let the person herself know that her identity has been revealed. I've already emailed her to tell her that she's been tentatively identified on this forum.

My second suggestion is to stop and THINK about what you are doing before you go any further. I'm one of the people who agrees with Daniel Brandt's accountability project. Accountability is what Wikipedia needs. However, there is a difference between accountability and harassment. We haven't got to prove she's done something wrong. If she has done something wrong, then I'm not saying disguise it or keep quiet about it. But this forum is turning in a direction I am very concerned about. One person today who didn't seem like a troll to me was turned into a troll, and then someone's address was posted against forum rules. This isn't good behaviour. The forum moderators need to moderate themselves.

I don't have as many pet theories about SlimVirgin as some other posters do, but I do have one, and that is that this article provides important clues to SV's identity, and perhaps her actual agenda at Wikipedia.

She is a member of the Cambridge Apostles? An undergraduate group of the 12 cleverest students who debates topics, and has been involved in spying?

Whilst it does add up, the issue is that of nationality. Slim Virgin is not British. She speaks from an American POV. Whilst she might be Canadian, she couldn't be British. Unless of course she just went there to go to University, which is a possibility.

She also has edited it quite a bit and it'd be interesting to look at her edits to see where this fits in.

Better do it before they censor it to the level that they censored Pan Am Flight 103.

I didn't say that, I have no evidence to that effect. But she is clearly fascinated by it, and the article notes that very few women have been members. I hope that Daniel can factor this in, and pull more rabbits out of his hat.

An analysis of edits might help. We found out a bit about the Pan Am Flight 103 by analysing edits. It was enough for Jayjg to decide to permawipe some stuff from history, saying it was "stalking", which is a good hint that we were on the right track. However, the edits he wiped were some that we didn't analyse...

Ok, I wasn´t very detailed, and it could be misunderstood, but here are the posts I was thinking of (they got moved around a bit, now they are all in the "main" SV thread), look at:

#103: http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?s=&sh...indpost&p=10148
(#118. http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?s=&sh...ndpost&p=10200)
#125: http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?s=&sh...indpost&p=10226

It is SV´s first quote in #103 that I thought fitted very well with the info Daniel Brandt just gave us.

PS: It seems I was pretty much on target in post #118 tongue.gif

I still think you're running up the wrong tree thinking she's anti Jewish or anti Israeli- do you think Jayjg and IZAK would be best buddies with her if she was? Just because she thinks the wrong people were blamed for Lockerbie doesn't say anything about her position on Jewish or Israeli matters , it just means that she wants the people who were really responsible for her friends death to be held accountable for it.
