Normal service resumed

Regular readers of this blog may have noticed that it was unavailable for about nine hours overnight. My Google accounts (of which Blogspot is one) were suspended because of unusual activity on those accounts.  The accounts have now been restored.  But if you have received odder than normal emails over the past few hours purporting to come from me, please be advised, in the Scots vernacular, it wisnae me at a’.

But isn't it interesting, though undoubtedly wholly coincidental, that this should have occurred on the very day that I posted on the blog an item about the interception of Lockerbie-related communications?

  1. It would be fascinating to know what bugs the CIA had in place at the Crown Office in the period before the sudden resignation of the Lord Advocate in February 2000 and what they revealed. Perhaps Edward Snowden will enlighten us.

  4. "The first answer from Edward Snowden to MEBO"...:
    "Justice will be served! You just oughta wait for your turn, such is the case of the present world"...

    Cool! Nice guy, though his English (and the statement itself) is slightly weird.

    But there may be a perfectly natural explanation - for example that FSB (KGB's successor) forced him to write the above in German on a Spanish typewriter, OCR-scan it, and finally run the result through google translate.

  6. Well, that facebook-account is not really by Mr. Snowden, but by a supporter with minimal activity, and not an English-speaking one.

    By all means, being supported by somebody who supports Snowden is also not so bad, so congratulations.

    It's just that your statement "The first answer from Edward Snowden to MEBO" could be misinterpreted as you got a statement coming from Mr. Snowden himself, couldn't it?
