Mr. Rice,
I called the number you left; your residence. The woman who
answered the telephone advised me you are experiencing difficulties with
your phone at work. I am responding because I expect my colleagues on the:
UNABOM Task Force
working on the: UNABOM investigation,
may be too busy to respond to your message any time soon. What the media has
done with the name is, indeed, varied. I suspect the variations all refer to
the same investigation. It should not be difficult to figure that out based
on the associated text of the media account. However, the *official* FBI
code name for the case & the task force is as noted above. I hope this helps.
