Exhibit C

I can't tell you how it runs yet.

I don't know this facility's security level, and the daily reality of a camp and a medium have almost nothing in common, so a generic writeup here would be guessing with my name on it. If you know the level, or your loved one is already there, tell me and this page gets real.

I answer in the order received, usually within a couple of days. I have a day job. If your situation genuinely needs more than an email, I take a limited number of consults, so say so and we'll work it out.
