Please! He was the Unabomber, IIRC.


Un-i-bomber, as in "University" bomber.


No, the earlier correct was right. Here's but one of many cites,
including books, including FBI files, including the court transcripts:


"The Definitive UNABOM Page -
Unabomber Information

* * * Over the course of 18 years (1978-1995), "the Unabomber",
generally accepted to be Ted Kaczynski acting alone, placed or mailed
23 package bombs. These bombs killed 3 and wounded 16. As the first
targets were UN-iversities and A-irlines, the FBI gave the case the
name UNABOM. The FBI was finally able to apprehend Kaczynski thanks to
his brother David and David's wife Linda who recognized the writing in
"Industrial Society and Its Future" (aka "The Manifesto") which the FBI
finally decided to let the Washington Post publish.

* * * His federal trial resulted in the sentence of multiple life
terms in the SuperMax prison in Colorado. Kaczynski requested an
appeal, hoping to get a re-trial in which he is able to defend himself
(which he originally requested permission to do on January 8, 1998),
but the request was denied (2-1) in Feb 2001 and TK will now have to
try the US Supreme Court. By appealing, TK has decided he would rather
risk receiving a death- sentence than live out his days in prison
diagnosed as mentally ill (he insists he is not, only that he had a
very difficult time with social adjustment as a kid). (Update 8/01:
Appeal denied.) His book has been postponed indefinitely, but his
allegory was published in 1999.
