Peg, I have read every one of the post on TreasureNet that the individual you are referring to has ever posted, and I think that you are blowing this way out of proportion. Oh and just for the record, I also have a government email address but I don't use it for anything but work related issues, and rarely give it to anyone at TreasureNet. Does this some how make me a nefarious character, that is trying to spy on Florida Treasure Hunters to see if they are up to anything illeagle? This individual has done nothing wrong or out of the ordinary, and Yes!, he asks questions (who doesn't on TNet), but he has not asked nearly as many as you have asked according to my count. From what I have read of his posts, he sounds very knowlegable of shipwrecks along the Florida coast. So instead of looking for the Gestapo under every rock, why don't you try to learn a thing or two from him.
This is America, and yes! even government employees have rights in this country, and are entitled to be Treasure Hunters if they so choose. I am a Government Employee (over 31 years of service and counting), and I am PROUD to tell the world that I am also a Treasure Hunter!
Peg!, the day that you and I met in Old Melbourne, I wasn't wearing a black trench coat was I?
I have to stop that, It so gives the wrong impression.
Tom
