The first thing we want is for you to do a rigorous ID check on Silvester
Drake, Ronin's new ID... what can you find? Any flaws?

Second, general support during the trip to Chiba which the meeting we're
sorting out will require.

Thirs, keep up the training you were giving me, and maybe teach Ronin and
Evita a thing or two, if they want.]<<<<<

preliminary indications are that he works for a small talent agency in
LA... they act as agents for action-sim actors, stuntmen, etc. Nothing
seems false yet.]<<<<<
