I too received an email message from a Sisu Suku. However, the tone of the communication was accusatory about my book, Fairest Picture – Mark Twain at Lake Tahoe. The writer insinuated because the Roughing It balloon voyage passage was a plagiarism; the sketch was false. Therefore, my research on correlating it to the campsite location was not correct. The email arrived shortly after I had made a paid speaking engagement in Carson City in which I described the Roughing It balloon voyage episode in detail. When I asked the writer for the plagiarized reference document as proof, I got no response. According to the hidden AOL header on the email, it originated from a Charter Communications Internet customer in Carson City, NV. An in-depth Internet search on the name Sisu Suku revealed no such person existed in the United States. The person who spoofed the email did not want their identity known, nor did they wish to share their background information with me. I smell a rat. David C.
