Sellam,
I was actually telling you the truth. There were some
irregularities going on in the defense department surplus
program that people did jail time over. A scrapper I've
bought items from in the past told me about it. Since it
wasn't of current importance to me at the time, as I'm
not in that line of work, I promptly forgot the details,
but definately remembered the "gist" of it. I could try to
get in contact with that fellow and get those names again,
and maybe a google search might show up the court case
abstracts. I know those things do occasionally go on, but
I'm just suggesting it not be mentioned in a public newsgroup
which gets archived ( permanently? ) to the google search engine.
