OK I just emailed him. We'll see if he answers. Probably not. He's working for Washington Post these days.
I asked him if he learned any other code words and whether he knew how they communicate outside the dark web: via symbols, via Facebook role playing games, via YouTube comment systems, etc.
Today I read an article you wrote, printed by the Tampa Bay Times on August 4, 2012, entitled "How pedophile trail led to a Largo man".
I am doing a research project on the subject of pedophile communication and I would like to know if you can advise me: are there any other pedophile code words you remember from your time undercover in the dark web pedophile community?
Also, was there any indication that they might ever use a covert means of communicating, i.e.; in real life, via symbols, via Facebook role-playing games, or via the YouTube comment system, etc.?
Thanks for any help you might be able to offer me.

I don't want to sound like a parent but make sure you don't turn him away, we don't want possible information to be lost.
