I met Frank Barron with Tim Leary and I think Saul-Paul Sirag at UCSC
in ~ 1976. Frank was a major player in CIA MK Ultra. Tim and he openly
talked about it as I recall. Certainly Tim told me for sure. I also met
Robin Williams with Tim back in the 1980s. BTW the late George Koopman
(DIA Spook) was with John Belushi night he OD'd. George told me. He may
have also told Saul-Paul? Koopman funded my PCRG and was Tim Leary's
control when he was let out of prison and came directly to our PCRG
Esalen in Big Sur from which Gary Zukav, my North Beach room-mate,
wrote "The Dancing Wu Li Masters" that sold millions of copies. I wrote
all the technical stuff for Gary.

I know Carlos Bea. I met a top Iran-Contra at his Bolinas house with
Stephen Schwartz and Kim Burrafato in the mid-80's. Carlos was not
there. Steve had access to his house. He always liked me and I never
saw any anti-Semetism from him. He is still friendly in the Hood. I was
with Lawry Chickering in Trieste 2 days ago. I did not realize that Don
Rumsfeld ran ICS for as long as 3-4 years. So Steven did get to know
him pretty well. Carlos Bea is Cuban and won a lawsuit against Castro.
He is now a San Francisco Superior Court Judge. So, again, all I can
say is that I never detected a tinge of any anti-Jewish attitude in
Carlos. He certainly knew that Stephen was half-Jewish. I am still on
friendly terms with him and his wife. I was even invited to their
Pacific Heights Mansion at a party back then when I was loosely
associated with ICS. Carlos was member of Pumpkin Papers with Richard
Nixon and he has Intel connections for sure. I think he knew the late
Harold Chipman when he was in CIA? Chip was part of MKUltra - he told
details to me and Kim and I think Bobby Jones.

Yes, so you and I about same age now were part of same project no
doubt. I know Krippner of course.
