I was REALLY hesistant to post this, but you know what??? It needs to be posted. I'm going to remove a few things, like an email address... But, here it is for the world to see.
I thought carefully about him wanting me to keep this confidential. I want the WORLD to know that there were John Titor Shenanigans on-going for the last few years. Now, the rest of you know. I want you all to see once and for all that Anomalies NEVER had any connection with Titor in setting him up. The ONLY connection that *I* personally had was the initial contact with him on Art Bells site, and later on Anomalies. Pamela Moore and Darby were in similar situations, but Pam more than the rest of us.
Haber is a lawyer in Florida that we believed for a long time to have some connection... then we received this message.
Also you need to know our stance on things Titor-related for the past few years. I've been personally accused of BEING Titor (No, I am not, no I wasn't and no I never did anything to advance the hoax). I believe darby was accused of it as well.
So... here it is for the world to see... an offer to give us information if we "play ball" with them
Enjoy

Hello! When I registered for these forums a little while ago, you probably saw my name and e-mail address... and were a little curious of connections. Due to some recent personal events concerning Larry Haber (who happens, coincidently, to be my father) I\'m willing to exchange some information via e-mail on the condition that you keep all of it confidential. I\'ve lurked around these boards for the past few weeks and I trust your honor and integrity, so please don\'t dissapoint me. E-mail me at ###@XXXX. No promises (he doesn\'t tell me much...) but anything that I can do, I\'ll try and help. I\'m guessing you probably know more about this than I do, but any holes I can fill in... like the fact that 741 Front Street (the address listed for the JTF, LLC) is my dad\'s old office space and is no longer used by him... I\'d be happy to help with. But, please, keep this COMPLETELY confidential. If I want the rest of the community to know about it... which might happen if other certain things take place... then I will.
Yes, this sounds mysterious. No, that\'s not my intention. =) I hope to see your e-mail soon.

Brandon;
We never turn down information from any source related to a story. Sorry it took so long to get back to you, but I\'m personally a little suspicious of your offer coming so quickly on the heels of us showing the connection of titor, the books, the audio, the foundation and this LLC - the "Foundation" and BUZZ.
I personally am completely opposed to this. It is completely against MY principles, you mentioned "honor" and "integrity". However, since YOU made the offer, we\'re going to trust YOUR integrity and honor.
Firstly, I\'ve been asked by the other people involved to tell you that we will accept anything you offer, as long as it is true. A vote was taken and I was out-voted.
Secondly, we will not accept information gotten by illegal means.
Thirdly, we can not accept this "complete confidentiality" statement regarding the data. EXCEPT, we will NOT identify you, your email address, or your location to anyone on the site, in public or privately. There are four of us that will share the data and will evaluate it based on our standards, not yours. We as investigators made a decision to share it or not depending on the facts and the source of the data.
Fourthly, since you\'ve been watching the site you know that "Buzz" posted a private message" I sent him with an invitation. He was attempting to show I am somehow not "honorable" or something. In response, I posted all the email we had from him. I will not hesitate to post everything including your initial message to me on the web if you pull anything like yourself. I would ask if you\'re going to ask US to remain "confidential" you would do the same with our emails and information we may give YOU.
I assume you have some information directly related to the Titor story. If it is directly related to that, you\'re welcome to provide whatever you feel is necessary.
I would ask that if YOU chose to "share things publically" (your data) that you will please notify me first and give me at least 48 hours to respond on normal weekdays. Sometimes I don\'t get online on weekends, so if you decide on Friday, I ask you to wait through monday NIGHT.
Please do not do anything that will cause your father problems, nor our site. You can make that common sense decision yourself.
Other than this, you are now considered a confidential source just like anyone else close to the story.
For the record, we DO have contact numbers, email address and other information in connection with your father and will not hesitate to share all of this with him if you\'re just playing games with us.
This information must be true, and correct and it can not violate any laws.
