[Email address redacted]And, just to show the whole thing's on the level, there's an also an email this evening from Professor Solud. Only, in that email the professor's name is rendered as "Soludo."
I don't know, though -- something about this just doesn't seem entirely legitimate....
Gosh. I hope this isn't a case of identity theft. Does Director Mueller know his identity has been appropriated?
