[AT] Does Walt have a death wish?

I hate to bring this up, folks, but Walt has been off the list long enough 
and was old enough that we don't even know if he's alive.  I mention this 
because it's entirely possible that what we're seeing is an attempt to place 
a bunch of bogus liens against his estate.  Scams like that predate the 
Internet, and we may be seeing just the tip of the iceberg.

Please don't shoot the messenger.

Larry
