It is likely that a principal reason for the new NSA system is
to be able to more efficiently spy on its users, as with intelink,
siprnet and niprnet -- and our own beloved Internet whose
users and hackers know not what is being logged.

Do not bite "John Young" bait.
This morning I testified before a Grand Jury in
Western Washington District Court, Seattle, which
is investigating Jim Bell for interstate stalking
of federal officials.
The testimony concerned what I knew about alleged
CIA employee Mueller and Jim's alleged gathering of
personsal information

The person also said the feds were searching for e-mail Jim

I can't prove the family member is that and not a fisher.

And how to tell which material is of genuine interest and
