I am in the photo. Also my father was being interviewed by Walter Cronkite on CBS news on Passamaquaddy Tidal Power project the day after the snow job. In my father info it said he had a son at MIT. CBS had published the hoax as real. When my father got home, he said Walter Cronkite asked him: 1) did he have a son at MIT: 2) does he live in Baker House! (Which I did.)

The result was a very minor role in the success of this hack. When the 1.6 M or so news photographer came through the fire doors, accompanied by some hacker types as it appeared, the large “trash cans” of snow were still visible down by the lounge. I stood directly in the photog;s path until the snow guys cleared out, and then stepped aside welcomingly. ‘Mission accomplished”
