Post-Earthquake - Anyone heard from Bleecker?
After reading reports such as "Thai officials said 431 people were killed and more than 3,600 injured in southern Thai resorts, including Phuket, the country's prime travel destination. Thousands of people were still missing..." and quotes from Thai resort owners such as "I am afraid that there will be a high figure of foreigners missing," I feel that I must express some concern for our dear Julian Bleecker, who is rumored to be vacationing in the area at this time. This is probably just idle worrywort-ism, but if anyone has heard news from him, for better or for worse, please let us know. The community cares, yes it does.

swell? as in, large wave?
I called the State Department looking for Bleecker - the foreigners-feared-lost-abroad phone number. When I mentioned his alternative technology development, like Mobile Bedouin, they promised to send their computer security experts out to track him down. Ooops!
