I think you are being overly dramatic. All he has to do is create a sock. Insiders will help him to the top in record time. There are very substantial doubts among researchers that Ryan Jordan in Kentucky even exists. I am not aware that anyone he met in San Francisco has even confirmed the photo of "Ryan Jordan" we have. That priest never answered my fax. The media has not been able to find him either. At this point he's not worth worrying about.

[Mar 4 2007 09:19:28] <jwales> David: I am in touch with him, I think he's ok.
[Mar 4 2007 09:19:34] <DavidGerard> jwales: good good
[Mar 4 2007 09:19:43] <DavidGerard> don't let him quit his job too. i mean jeez.
[Mar 4 2007 09:20:13] <jwales> At least with me personally and privately, he and I have things straight between us no problem. I think he's a great guy, he just screwed this up badly... a long time ago... and the chickens came home to roost with a vengeance.
I don't see him on facebook any longer either. For the record, here is a list of the "friends" he had. A number of them are from the Louisville area, but that doesn't mean Ryan Jordan still lives there.
