[pct-l] Breaking News!!!

[Reinhold Metzger]

Say Bill,
Why did you call me  "The Trouble Maker"  when I picked up my resupplies 
at  VVR  last summer?
I am hurt and deeply offended....I  DEMAND  A  APOLOGY!!!!!!!
I know Switchback is the list's  "enemy #1"....but I should at least 
rank  #2....not just merely a "Trouble Maker".

JMT Reinhold
Enemy  #2
