Okay, now this is unfortunately no joke, but instead a very serious
situation that the national organizations are trying to do their best
to ignore. Lupin Lodge was in Issue 30.3 of the Naturist Society
Magazine which I believe is the latest version which of course is
disgraceful with all the BDSM stuff going on there. AANR as well has
remained mostly silent apart from a "we''ll look into it". Last year
they were notified about this stuff going on and they said they told
club management and the club management said they were unaware of what
was going to happen, that they had no knowledge of the BDSM clubs in
question, and that they will turn such people away from the club.
Obviously they lied to AANR and the whole nudist/naturist community.
It's the active deceit that is going on that is as troublesome as what
is going on. If they lie about this what else would they lie about it
they thought it was in their interests to?


Oh, by the way, this "smashwolf" is just a leader of ONE of at least
TWO BDSM groups that uses Lupin Lodge. There's been no direct
comment from Uncle Abdul (no joke that is what he calls himself) of
Masters and slaves Together of Santa Clara County (MAST) except for
the comment he has about the monthly meeting (next one this Sunday)
where he said " Lupin is open and aware of our group, has all their
permits and has been around 78 years- we are welcomed with open arms,
and hope that your time with us will be a warm, loving environment
with leather folk and M/s friends. "

Here is nudiarist's post. Please go to his site because a lot I just
can't cut and paste as they are jpg files. It is sad that it has come
to this, but Lupin Lodge as much for the lying as well as the actual
BDSM activity must be removed from AANR and The Naturist Society if
these organizations want to maintain any credibility.

BDSM Group Leader Speaks Up About Lupin Lodge

"smashwolf", the organizer of the "Human Fox Hunt" event at Lupin
Lodge, has spoken up through his Twitter account, admitting that Lupin
and AANR are keeping the event quiet because "it makes sense not to
flaunt our sort of event in the faces of naturists worldwide", and
because on "the national level, Lupin values it's standing in the
naturist community".

Admitting that there is a deliberate cover-up, smashwolf goes on to
accuse me of being a troll and of being "so midwest" in my personal
values, and that people in California simply have "different
sensitivities".

In another tweet, smashwolf says, "There is a time and place for
everything. and this activity requires a controlled, private, and
discrete location". He justifies the linking of his fetish group with
a naturist venue by stating that "Walls are walls, naturist, or a
kinkster. The same forces that oppose nudity, oppose sexuality, and
self expression."

And to further emphasize the fact that Lupin Lodge knows exactly what
is happening, smashwolf states that "hosting the event there actually
meshes well with the existing community. There seems to be a lot of
mutual respect."

OK, let's get one thing straight - I have no personal opposition to
people who wish to engage in a BDSM or other erotic lifestyle. I've
known people all my life with different sexual needs, and when
consenting adults decide to play together, it's fine with me. We need
more people comfortable with their own sexual expression, not less.

And it has nothing to do with "midwest values". That's a crock. Where
I live in Columbus, Ohio, there is a thriving BDSM community, all you
have to do is do a little Google searching. This is a desperate
argument. People can justify *anything* if they lie to themselves
enough.

Not to mention that Columbus Ohio is one of the few places in the
country where women can walk about topfree legally.

No, this is about naturist values. This is about the stated principles
of naturism and nudism as have been understood and passed down for a
century. What is central to the movement is that people of all ages
can gather together to socialize and recreate in the nude without
overt sexual activity.

Nudism is not anti-sexuality. In the Naturist Society document "205
Arguments and Observations in Support of Naturism", the words "sex"
and "sexuality" and variations thereof appear 152 times. Naturists
argue clearly and rationally that nudity is healthy for mind, body,
and sexual development.

Naturists and nudists believe that clothing actually sexualizes the
body by emphasizing certain parts, that the wearing of textiles
creates a false image of who we really are, and that what we wear
actually divides people socially. By being nude with each other, as we
all are when we enter the world, there can be no pretense, no hiding,
and no shame.

On the Lupin Lodge website, overt sexual activity is strictly
forbidden.

Public eroticism and sexual exploitation are not acceptable at
Lupin. We have found that an absence of sexual pressure fosters
uniquely open communications across differences of gender, generation,
and genealogy and allows everyone to just relax and enjoy Lupin as the
special resort it is. Guests and visitors who accept the mutual
agreements under which the club operates are welcome to share Lupin's
unique ambience.

Lupin Lodge is affiliated with both the American Association for Nude
Recreation (AANR) and The Naturist Society (TNS). From the TNS
website:

Is naturism appropriate for families?

Absolutely! Naturism is about body acceptance and body awareness,
which makes it appropriate for everyone. Therefore, families with
children are welcome at naturist venues and events. Any venue or event
that purports to be "naturist" but excludes children should be viewed
with skepticism. Such exclusions are appropriate in some cases. A
grueling nude hike or a late evening dance at a club or resort come to
mind. But the exclusion of children is sometimes used as a signal that
an event is sexual in nature. The Naturist Society has no interest in
passing judgment on sexual activities among consenting adults;
however, TNS adamantly rejects the use of the term "naturism" as a
cover for sexual activity. Naturists do not deny the sexual nature of
human beings, but they reject the all too prevalent view in our
society that nudity and sex are synonymous, and that children should
be "protected" from nudity regardless of context. To repeat: nude is
not lewd.

And from AANR "Nudist Family Values":

Whatever the level of amenities offered, all clubs are expected to
adhere to AANR’s principles and standards, honed from 79 years of
experience. Our clubs foster a wholesome, nurturing environment for
members and their families.

Where are the nudist and naturist leaders on this issue? Where are
Susan Weaver, Anita Panganiban, James Lane and the heads of the other
regional AANR offices? Where is Nicky Hoffman-Lee, and why is the
Naturist Society holding its Western Gathering at Lupin Lodge this
year in light of the marketing to groups which are the antithesis of
what naturism is all about? And where are Bob Morton, Mark Storey and
other leaders in TNS and the Naturist Action Committee? And where is
the outrage from Robbe White of the Florida Young Naturists, who
recently mounted a merciless campaign against Young Naturists America
for issues which pale in comparison to what is happening at Lupin
Lodge?

The Naturist Action Committee works tirelessly on the behalf of
naturists in fighting unjust anti-nudity laws and preserving the few
clothing-optional beaches in America. AANR has its Government Affairs
Team which is currently trying to negotiate for public lands to be set
aside for nude recreation in California, and in a recent letter to
Chief of the California Department of Parks and Recreation Tony Perez,
declared that "any step towards creating areas set apart for nudity
would usher in an entirely new level of sharing and cooperation."

The primary reason that the California DPR ended nudity at San Onofre
Beach was because of complaints of sexual activity. How on earth can
either AANR or TNS claim any moral high ground when negotiating with
government officials when one of their premier nudist venues is
hosting erotic fetish groups?

John Dean once warned President Nixon that there was a "cancer" on the
Presidency. Well, there is a cancer on organized nudism.

When confronted with the Lupin Lodge situation back in May of 2010,
AANR issued the following statement:

I was made aware of these various groups just this week, I did
look at their websites and found the content very disturbing. The most
disturbing was that these groups had planned on “ambushing” Lupin
Lodge and AANR.

I immediately called the club and spoke with the owners, I also
sent them any information I was able to find. Of course they were
shocked and very annoyed that this was about to befall them, they are
very proud of their family-friendly, non-sexual resort.

They thanked the AANR office for catching this, and assured us
that there would be extra security at the gate and in the resort.
These groups will be turned away and or ejected, and will never be
welcome at Lupin Lodge.

Thank you once again for your email and for confirming the intent
of these groups.

Sincerely,
Terry Justice
Club/Member Liaison

Disturbing. Ambushing. Shocked. Annoyed. Extra security. Turned away.
Ejected. NEVER be welcome. This was a Shermanesque statement if there
ever was one. AANR is either completely naive, or they are
deliberately covering-up the truth. I understand that AANR and TNS are
between a rock and a hard place on this issue. Lupin Lodge has been a
respected naturist venue for 75 years and was the cover story of a
recent Naturist Society magazine.

But AANR took swift action with Caliente, Paradise Lakes and Seminole
in Florida when those clubs began to openly market to swingers, and
holding sex-themed parties.

The national organizations are now confronted with a decisive moment,
to either continue covering up and accepting erotic lifestyle groups
at nudist resorts, or begin telling the truth about what is happening
and let the chips fall where they may. Lies, deceptions and feigning
ignorance can no longer stand.

"smashwolf" argues in a voice suffused with reasonable tones. He
affects the demeanor of a man concerned only with the loftiest of
ideals, and the betterment of society. His pose is nothing new. Cicero
admonished "Esse quam videri" (To be, rather than to seem to be) two
thousand years ago precisely because so many of his fellow Romans were
transparent phonies, pretending to be what they are not. And so it is
for "smashwolf" and so many others in our own time. "And thus I clothe
my naked villany With odd old ends stol'n forth of holy writ, And seem
a saint when most I play the devil."

BDSM is a vicious, degrading, inhumane, inhuman abuse of one human
being by another --- all done in the name of pleasure. But it's not
pleasure, really. It's a sick form of gratification that feeds off,
and reinforces, the very worst, and most deadly, behaviors in the
repertoire of human behaviors. There is nothing -- absolutely nothing
-- socially or personally redeeming about the activity. It is sick and
evil from beginning to end, for both the "master" and the "slave."

The values that are supposed to inform and animate nudism -- honesty,
realism, kindness, acceptance, generosity, togetherness, community,
tenderness, friendliness -- are directly counter to the values that
inform BDSM -- domination, cruelty, rejection, selfishness,
alienation, anger -- all confected in an absurd and darkened make-
believe world that invites nothing but scorn and mockery when examined
in the clear light of day.

Nudists have a strong interest in clearly and completely separating
themselves from this destructive "kink." Let these sick people
perpetrate their vulgarities in their own flea bitten rat holes, and
keep them away from the "sun" people, nudists who celebrate their
humanity, their bodies, and each other.

Where's the commitment to nudism? Why aren't local clubs throughout
the country, heck throughout the world passing resolutions condemning
Lupin Lodge and sending these resolutions to AANR and the Naturist
society.

Silence is acceptance!

Anna....it is mindboggling ....but my experiece with nudism over the
last few years has been that nudist are a transient lot.....one could
belong to a club and attend on a given weekend and return the next
weekend to find all new people and none from the weekend
before.....this was not the case up through the seventies...where one
could attend on a given weekend and a year later find 75 percent of
the people still in attendence.....so if this is happening all across
the country then it is like a movie theater....where it would be
doubtful if any one complained about behavior because there is no
attachment to the theater.....in the seventies there would have been
complaints but i think times have changed where aanr is telling the
truth and has not received complaints about this bdsm
problem ......and the bdsm folks know this and will enjoy free
wheeling rather easy.....and of course with the nation realizing so
many problems of a social nature....there is not gonna be much
attention to nudist acting up at local camps....so there goes the
neighborhood....huh.......z

There's still the local club management. Are they so willing to
accept being associated with such behavior? For if they are members
of AANR and the Naturist Society then indeed they are associated with
what's going on at Lupin Lodge unless they vocally stand up against it.

From a simple viewpoint, it hardly surprises me, given that "Lupin
Lodge" was one of the main territories of Robert Sinnickson's incest
circle, where children as young as 6 or 7 years of age were
systematically introduced to "penetration" by this sick individual's
cult of perversion and abuse.

Thanks to a few of us putting megabytes of evidence in the hands of
the FBI (Innocent Images National Initiative), endorsed by Terry
Justice's swift action, Sinnickson has been thrown out of all AANR-
associated clubs. But his legacy probably lives on.

In case any of you come across this reprobate, his details are as
follows: Robert Sinnickson - (DOB: 08/07/47 - Address: P O Box 1732
Sausalito Ca 94965 - DL #: N8912977 - Vehicle: Silver Buick Riviera -
Lic. Plate # S2746

We can never rest!

Hi Zee,

They started many years ago, by his own admission with his own
grandkids. I contacted the FBI in early 2010 only to find others were
there before me. The forces of law and order gicve technological help
to volunteers chase prime suspects around the net when there is good
evidence. Of course I was on the receiving end of no end of abuse
from him as a result of my action.

Terry Justice, AANR, terminated him in the naturist community in mid
2010, but he has reappeared on the internet from time to time. I know
legal investigations take some time but i am concerned for our kids
that nothing has be heard of the case since.

Be comforted that AANR do act, and swiftly, when there is something
truly despicable threatening our lifestyle.

Well they haven't acted yet on this whole Lupin Lodge BDSM thing. They
have known about it for about a year.

Wow.

Many nudists like to go on "well that was in the 1970s" it ain't the
way things are now.

Or "well that was in the 1980s" it ain't the way things are now.

Or ""well that was in the 1990s" it ain't the way things are now."

But we are talking here about something that occurred quite recently,
right?

I hate to say it but it's true. Nudists have had a history of
ignoring and then lying about what really goes on at their places.
And this whole current thing with Lupin Lodge just proves that it's a
history that has carried on to modern day.

AANR needs to revoke it's charter to Lupin Lodge. The Naturist
society needs to as well. And they need to cancel their Naturist
Festival. Otherwise when things REALLY COME DOWN on Lupin these
organizations will tarnish all of nudism.

I ask all nudist clubs to officially contact AANR and the Naturist
society regarding what is going on.

Here's what Shady Rest was like in the 1990s.

But I am sure that it's not like that anymore (well who knows, right).

There's a pattern of these sort of things that seem to reach back
years. But it's not like it's only in the past. As we see with Lupin
Lodge it continues to this very day. Lupin Lodge has a yearly Lingerie
Show!

http://www.nostatusquo.com/ACLU/NudistHallofShame/Silver.html

http://tinyurl.com/3uhlzmj

Sunny Rest Lodge in the Poconos is well known among nudists. I was
invited there for a weekend by a male acquaintance, a member of Sunny
Rest who took advantage of the management's offer to bring as many
women as he wanted for free. The owners, responding to the
disproportionately large number of men to women, are trying to attract
more single women to the club.

The evening I arrived, I sat in the recreation room talking with
a man in a body suit who was a writer. After a while, he pulled out
his penis and showed me the nine cock rings on it. I asked him why he
needed to exhibit himself.

Quite a paradox at a nudist camp: obviously, one needs to try very
hard to do that there. He told me his exhibitionism afforded him an
outlet which, if he did not have it, might make him even possibly
dangerous as he acted out his need to be noticed in the outside
world.

While we were talking, disco dancing was taking place in the
adjacent room. The disco is the only evening activity. The owners told
me later that they had to close the clubs whirlpool between two and
six o'clock am because people had been using the room to have sex.

The following day I was enjoying the heated pool when a man spoke
into a microphone explaining that Sunny Rest was videotaping its
yearly lingerie fashion show by the pool, and anyone who didn't want
to be filmed as the models strolled past was advised to leave the
area. I had mixed feelings both about being there at all and having my
image taken as a bystander, but felt that as a writer it would be
valuable for me to stay and observe from my well-placed seat.
The models were primarily customers of the resort. All of the
women came out in skimpy lingerie, some with garters and cut-off elbow-
length gloves.

Most wore panties that often just covered the vulva with a single
strap running between the buttocks to hold the cloth in place. The
women also wore high heels, strutting around the perimeter of the pool
in time to the emcees comments.

"There's Cathy, modeling a black teddy with removable feathers.
Seven or eight guys ought to be able to take care of her." The nudists
applauded as Cathy came out from the door of the dining room adjacent
to one side of the pool, which served as a stage.

"Theresa Pat in black lace and pink flowers. Doesn't she look
beautiful? And a beautiful smile to match, with flashing eyes. That's
the way you should always wrap a package."

The door opened again. "Heroes Sandy in a red lace teddy, pearls
and matching shoes. Shell pass by your place at night and make sure
you're satisfied."

"Back row, back row!" After almost each presentation, the people
seated behind me cajoled the models to come to their area. The
lingeried women would sashay toward them, eyeing their attentive
audience, then lean down and blow kisses or turn around and stick out
their rear ends. I looked closer at the people directly behind me in
the back row. The two women had trimmed their pubic hair into mohawks.
The man with them had totally shaved his.

"I need an Amy," the emcee was saying, referring to a model who
had just emerged from the dining room. "Daun't any of you guys need an
Amy? We all need an Amy. Here comes Amy in tassels. Amy, you're
lookin' good.... Look at that sliding pond. Its getting hard."

There must have been about two hundred people around and in the
pool, watching the fashion show. Now some men emerged.

"There's John, wearing a G-string that's a cockatoo. John didn't
want me to reveal this, but he'll be single for the next two weeks and
he said he'd leave the key to his trailer under the mat."

The male model's G-strings were designed as brightly colored
animal heads that covered the penis. The men wore matching animal head
hats. John, in an elephant motif, jumped in sneakered feet around the
pool, poking various people with the elephants trunk on his hat. None
of the women had pranced like that. They all wore spiked heels and had
to walk slowly as they were being watched.

"Does anybody have a whip? Nine people have volunteered their
whips," the emcee announced. Two women in matching teddies stepped in
opposite directions and met halfway around the pool. Looking each
other in the eyes, they kissed on the lips. The nudists clapped and
cheered.

Another man came out of the dining room wearing a green-and-brown
army camouflage pattern G-string and a helmet. "We got someone from a
military base to model for us," the emcee quipped. "This guys doing
night patrol."

Then came the male-female couple walking haltingly in tandem.
They wore matching scanty bottoms attached to each other by a chain.
"Hold on to the person that brought you," we were advised. "Then
again, you may not want to go home with the person that brought
you...."

By now I had borrowed a pad and was furiously writing. I had
become more accustomed to the probability that I was in the video
movie as the camera swept by me each time it followed the models into
the back row. Even so, I finally made a face as I looked at the
camera.

I also looked at the clock. The show had been going on for about
two hours. Periodically I'd dive in to the pool to cool off. Then I
heard:

"Here are Cathy and Amy in pink and white. They're wearing
frills. They look just like little girls." The emcee paused. "Doesn't
that give a new meaning to little girls?"

I looked in the pool at two little girls and two boys about eight
years old, leaning on rubber rafts. They were watching intently.

The last act of the show was two men in drag wearing wigs, heels
and fringes. The nudist audience tittered, cheered and applauded.
"Look at them," we heard through the p.a. system. "They're trying to
be careful and don't want to mess their hair up." The two men joined
the third male model and eleven women for the grand finale, all lined
up holding drinks in a toast position. At least half the people around
the pool had drinks. They were also smoking.
Two of the models were Myra and Buddy Mesher, the owners of Sunny
Rest. I talked to Myra and Buddy after the show. Myra was tired. "I
had a little too much to drink," she told me. But I wouldn't have been
able to model otherwise.

Why? I wanted to know.

Because I was in front of all those people looking at me. I had
to drink so I wouldn't feel self-conscious.

"Don't you think that says something about the premise of the
fashion show?" I asked her. "Maybe you were right to feel self-
conscious."

"The show was a good thing." Buddy, her husband, immediately
spoke up. "We have it because the people like it. And I never would
have thought I'd be modeling; initially I felt funny. But I'm glad I
did it. It was very freeing."

"The only thing", he continued, "that may not have been so great
was that the kids were there."

"But its better they learn about this here, where its safe, than
on the outside," Myra interjected.

"Look," Buddy turned toward me, "I know how you feel. But these
happenings are harmless. Women who had been too afraid and shy to go
to lingerie shops were able to get the things here, even heavy women,
women who don't have great figures. They were able to feel good about
themselves. And yes, the people do come here to get titillated. I
admit it, there's swinging here. But what people want to do in the
privacy of their own bedrooms is their business as long as I don't see
it."

"Don't you think," I asked him, "that all this swinging
diminishes peoples ability to be genuinely intimate with each other?"

"When people come to Sunny Rest," Buddy explained, "they want to
get away from it all business, family pressures, politics. They don't
want to talk about anything heavy. They need to let loose. Some people
come here just to go to the disco and watch, then they go home and
probably have better sex. Others dance, are part of the show. Whatever
the people need, we provide that for them."

I awakened the next morning thinking about something else that
Buddy had told me. One weekend during a Naturist Society gathering at
Sunny Rest in 1984, he, Myra, and two other family members had seen at
least five different adults with a pre-teenaged boy, all at different
times.

One man had been noticed with his hand down the boys pants.

The youths parents were not at the resort. At the end of the
weekend, after he'd seen enough to know that something improper was
going on, Buddy summoned the boy and all the adults into the office,
locked the door and called the police.

This was the second incident of pedophilia Buddy had told me about
during our two-hour conversation. The other involved a little girl who
disclosed to Buddy that she was feeling uneasy because a man was
following and staring at her. "I told him very gently what the little
girl said, and he turned pale and started shaking. So I gave him his
money back and asked him to leave."

The morning after my discussion with Buddy and Myra, it is
raining. In one of the bathrooms I speak to a woman in her thirties
whose boyfriend has brought her to Sunny Rest for the weekend without
telling her that it is a nudist camp. As she speaks falteringly about
her discomfort, she inadvertently dries herself off with my towel. I
tell her I don't feel that this or any nudist camp is a good way to
become introduced to a clothing-optional lifestyle. I ask her if her
boyfriend swings. She says he does, but not when she's around, and she
doesn't want to do it. He then appears at the screen door.

"Hi, frizzle-face."

"You're not in a good mood," she says.

"Sure I am."

"You're always in a terrible mood in the morning." Her voice is
restrained, and as she speaks she is looking in the mirror and putting
on makeup.
He takes out a cigarette. "Would you mind, I ask, smoking away
from the door?"

"Not at all," he replies, then mutters as he walks away,
"Jesus."

I am not sure he's out of earshot. He was being very hostile, I
remark to the young woman, my voice low. Her eyes are earnestly
focused on me.

"This isn't a healthy place to learn about nudity," I repeat;
then,

"Don't let him intimidate you."

Even though my new friend is considerably taller than my five
foot one inch height, she seems very frail to me. I don't yet want to
leave her.
"You have a right to do what you want," I say softly but firmly.
"Don't let anyone pressure you. It's your life."

Suddenly, awkwardly, she gives me a hug from the side. I am very
touched.

"Be good to yourself, I tell her."

"Thank you. Goodbye." As I depart, treading my way down the path
outside, I soberly contemplate that I'll probably never see her again.
I doubt that she'll return to Sunny Rest. At least I hope not. I know
I wont.

But that was 1990. Things are different now, right?

Here's a story from quite recently from a nudist blog.

http://bloggerinthebuff.blogspot.com/2010/11/party-what-to-wear.html

http://tinyurl.com/4e8ndzg

I have been to several nudist parties. Most of them are theme parties.
Then the question still remains, "What should I wear?" Followed by the
wonderment of why there should be a concern about what to wear to a
nudist party. Strangely however, many nudists love to dress up for
parties. The difference is usually the extent to which they will dress
up. Men and women alike seem to enjoy the art of wearing a costume
that still allows for certain body parts to remain unconstrained and
unhidden. On many occasions party goers will wear lingerie that is
completely unrelated to the night's theme.

----

Of course many of them are older people. So imagine the scene. A bunch
of old men with their Dicks hanging out and a bunch of old women in
Lingerie all bumping and grinding. Yuck. Simple nudity I don't
really get an Ugh feeling about although I know others do, but old
people "Getting it on", yuck.

And then you have the child abuse, which seems to have been at
practically every club. Again it's a per capital thing. It doesn't
matter that it happens other places. What matters is how frequent does
it happen at nudist places. And while depending on location most
nudist are honest salt of the earth decent people (I know Zee would
disagree with that) the Lewd does attract the lewd and good people
just can't understand evil and would rather ignore it then go through
the dangerous and painful fight against it. Most people don't like
conflict, especially around something that is supposed to be about
relaxation. So they pretend it's not going on. Just like AANR and the
Naturist Society is.

What bothers me as much as what is going on at Lupin is that AANR
instead of fighting it is actually actively trying to cover it up!

At one time or another. Not all going on at the same time, at least I
don't think it's that bad. But at any one time a certain percentage
of the clubs are in the hands of perverts and most every club seems to
have had a period of time that if not currently, then in the past
where the club was in the hands of perverts and bad things happened.

it appears there is more girls molested in the news than little boys
however the boys seems to be more traumatized than the
girls....because the boys are molested usually by
homosexuals......which i see as very horrorible and
heneous......wonder if little girls feel this way about being molested
by females.....never have heard any discussion on this issue ......on
a brighter note....in my local area i have not noticed a molestation
case in any of the newspapers or tv this year since school
started......could it be a decline in this type abuse all across the
country and why.......z

From a simple viewpoint, it hardly surprises me, given that "Lupin
Lodge" was one of the main territories of Robert Sinnickson's incest
circle, where children as young as 6 or 7 years of age were
systematically introduced to "penetration" by this sick individual's
cult of perversion and abuse.
So... discussing consensual behavior among loving adults is equivalent
to and correlated to child abuse in a single sentence.

Sweet.

"Anna," you have a brother in arms, it seems.

Thanks to a few of us putting megabytes of evidence in the hands of
the FBI (Innocent Images National Initiative), endorsed by Terry
Justice's swift action, Sinnickson has been thrown out of all AANR-
associated clubs.  But his legacy probably lives on.
In case any of you come across this reprobate, his details are as
follows:  Robert Sinnickson - (DOB: 08/07/47 - Address: P O Box 1732
Sausalito Ca 94965 - DL #: N8912977 - Vehicle: Silver Buick Riviera -
