Re: [atlarge-discuss] Michael Sherrill Phone Call to:Re: [atlarge-discuss] Me...

Hello Danny:

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.  I installed a filter many months 
ago to separate Jeff Williams from the reality of this organization.  It reduced 
the amount of email considerably.  More so, it had no effect on the ability to 
perceive the progress of the group.  Late tonight (11:15 PM) I received a phone 
call purportedly from someone named Jeff Williams.  This cannot, unfortunately, 
be verified.  There is a Jeff Williams that posts to this site but that entity 
has not been authenticated.  Jeff Williams has a very long history of non-
authenticated boastings, ramblings, and threats.  So, when I received his 
belligerent phone call I told him he was a kook, a zombie, and a butt head.  And 
then I hung up.

I do not respond to non-entities, email or phone call.  There may be a real 
person typing on a keyboard or making phone calls but that real person is not 
Jeff Williams.

Let us continue to work towards making this a responsible organization.  One 
person one vote.

Regards,


Micheal Sherrill

Re:  "But I got you on tape fella!"

Jeff, please be advised that U.S. Federal statutes provide criminal penalties 
for unlawful interception of telephone conversations, including up to five 
years' imprisonment or a maximum of $10,000 in fines.

Calls that cross state lines are admittedly complicated legal issues 
especially when one state is a one party consent state (such as Texas) and the other 
state is an all party consent state (such as California),  but since the call 
went across a state line, the federal laws would certainly apply.  Surely you 
recall the indictment of Linda Tripp on such charges -- she recorded the 
telephone conversations of Monica Lewinski concerning her relationship with 
President Clinton (and did not have the consent of the party being recorded).  

Personally, I think your practice of recording other peoples telephone calls 
to you without their knowledge and consent is repugnant.
