This ruling must have surely turned Microsoft against me personally. Bill Gates still had plans to profit from the life of Thomas Ray with his Corbis collection, but I suspect that he can't start profiting from the details he has collected on Thomas Ray until I am dead. As long as I am alive, and have credibility, he can't profit from my identity, at least not without the risk of me complaining.
I also suspect he is trying to exact revenge on the government through me for what happened to him with the antitrust investigation.
It was only recently that I connected June 7 with the Osirak strike. I started off thinking it meant something to me personally because it was precisely 18 months after my start of employment on 12/7/98. I did a Google search of the phrase "18 months investigation" and found that it had the most hits, when you compared it with "3 months investigation," 4 months investigation," etc.
But now I know why that happened. As Jackson was investigating Microsoft, he saw that they had exposed my covert activities. As a well-placed defense contractor, Microsoft has too much information to government secrets. I also learned recently, from an April 2001 article, that Bill Gates is a major shareholder of the ship yard that constructed the newest aircraft carrier, USS Ronald Reagan. Gates owns not just 8% of Newport News Shipyard, he owns 7.8%, an important number to Thomas Ray. I believe that Thomas Ray entered the U.S. Naval Academy in 1978.
