Letter 1
Your warm remembrance [of Kirk von Ackermann] reinforces what I experience every day when I read the obituaries in the paper or hear of death in the news - TV or otherwise. That is to say that even though I may not have a personal link with the deceased, someone did and does still, for which empathy is required of me, not just passing sympathy.Letter 2

With Michael Moore-ish manipulative flair, Batstone paints von Ackermann as a blue-blooded soccer dad who equally loves foreign children and hates American oppression of them. I do not repudiate Ackermann's virtue but Batstone's implication that powerful Americans hate and kill such saints and all they stand for.*See Missing Man post, Sojourner, February 20, 2005.

All of the articles and information posted here at the Missing Man were found using the search engine, google.com
I started the blog to help people find information about your father and his colleague, Ryan Manelick.
There is an Introduction on the home page which explains why.
From the articles I have read about your father, he's a truly remarkable person.
I should know better than to generalize...
Three articles were emailed to me. The Ultra Services website link was originally posted in a comment at my old blog.
