Dear Cabal Members, I am pleased to say that our blatantly racist conspiracy, underwritten by huge amounts of money from Raytheon, has successfully thwarted the efforts of V.A. Shiva Ayyadurai, former 14 year old boy, to alert the world to the truth of email history. Earlier today the Huffington Post, perhaps America's most reputable news organization, pulled its entire "History of Email Series" and replaced each part with a note that "The post that previously appeared in this space -- part of a blogger-generated series on the history of email -- is no longer available. Readers and media commentators alerted us to factual and sourcing issues in the series and, after an internal review, we removed it from the site." The one media outlet brave enough to stand against the cabal has fallen. Even the Huffington Post's hard-hitting news video, in which Ayyadurai was repeatedly asked how it felt to be so awesome and how he planned to celebrate his accomplishments while Fran Descher waved from the background and petted a small dog, has vanished from the internet. Ayyadurai, who is universally recognized by those not in our thrall as "one of the great minds on our planet," and the "world's foremost authority on integrating systems of medicine," recently tweeted that "There is NO 'Controversy' on who invented email except the one created by a bunch of 'old white men' " and inspiringly noted that "Sharing the truth of #email is not abt me or email but abt defying #racism & classism that denies the infinite nature of the human Spirit." The slogan on his website "Know the truth, be the light, find your way" captures his humble and spiritual nature. As Noam Chomsky, email history expert, noted "there is no 'controversy' here, except the one created by industry insiders, who have a vested interest." Fortunately our success in suppressing the truths briefly glimpsed in former MIT Adjunct Professor Deborah J. Nightingale's well researched and entirely balanced article "The Five Myths About Email's History and the 'Controversy' Fabricated by Industry Insiders to Hijack the Invention of Email" means that Huffington Post readers will no longer realize that scrupulous journalists celebrating Ayyadurai's accomplishment "were attacked and barraged by this coterie of industry insiders including consultants, employees, alumni and an Internet cabal of SIGCIS 'historians' with ties to Raytheon/BBN." Her brave voice, warning that bloggers in league with the our evil plot "did little primary research, rather simply parroting and escalating the vitriol, defamation and character assassination of Shiva, while attacking and bullying journalists, including technology editors" has been silenced. Now the people of earth will go about their business blissfully unaware that a "a group of industry insiders, public relations experts and "historians" loyal to Raytheon/BBN, a multi-billion dollar company which had predicated its entire brand on the claim it had "invented email," began purposely misusing the term "email" to refer to its developments in text messaging, done prior to 1978 as 'email,' in order to hijack credit for the invention from the 14-year-old boy." Only Depak Chopra's article and video, "The Boy Who Invented Email" is left on the Huffington Post to speak truth to power.

At our next meeting I will be drinking a toast to the triumph of evil, probably in human blood from the Holy Grail if I can remember where we stashed it. Sanctified with the great seal of the SIGCIS Cabal, in the year of our Lord two thousand and fourteen. by Grand Master Thomas Haigh, inquisitor of the great conspiracy.
