So just keep in mind that information submitted via the Internet is freely available to those who care to filter through it all. Actually, the Internet itself began as a project by DARPA and was originally called DARPA Net, I believe. Consider a forum such as this as a good opportunity to speak directly to such people.
I have no doubt they are watching, actually I depend on it.

They leave me alone and I give them the advice they need...
