Threadcreep ... my father was a "spook" for the Navy and for RCA and it wasn't unusual for my neighbors in Washington, D.C., to tell me that some "guys" had been snooping around the place. They didn't know they were my "unseen" bodyguards. I was always trying to elude them, but when I participated in the Candlelight March across the 14th Street Bridge, to protest the war, October or November 1969, they wrote up a whole report and sent it to my father. Oy! ... he was very upset with me and told me I should have used a disguise. So, yes, it is better if the Establishment doesn't know you're around.
