Fifteen years ago today, on Monday, 18 September 2000, AntiPolygraph.org went online.
Congratulations George ! Please keep fighting the good fight. You have joined the ranks of Martin Luther, Dietrich Bonhoeffer and a handful of other true heroes. The directors of several Executive Branch agencies of the US Government require their subordinates to visit the Holocaust Museum in Washington to make them appreciate the damage that can be caused by abuse of authority. What an irony that the same hypocrites continue to allow the polygraph carnage to continue day after day. Not only do you fight to free innocent victims, but also to see that our inept leaders will be remembered in the annuls of history in the same category as the rest of history's tyrants.
Of course, the Agency has its own museum that the DCI can require his employees to visit!

Glad to learn that this site has been around that long! I admire you, George, for your courage in speaking out on this and related subjects, discussion of which would otherwise be virtually impossible, at what is no doubt a not inconsiderable risk to your own career and well-being! To another 15!

George, although I do not possess anywhere near the qualifications of Dr. Richardson, I join him in extending my personal appreciation for your efforts in exposing the dangers the stubborn reliance on polygraphy presents to law enforcement and national security efforts.

Although I follow antipolygraph.org and have posted comments many times over the last 15 years, most of those posted comments were in the early years of APO.
As you have noted, after quite some time since the last such effort, I started a new thread yesterday. I notice that several thousands of people have seen that thread over the last 15 or so hours and that record numbers (for the site) of people at a given instant in time have viewed the thread.
The aforementioned is not only a testament to your management of this site, but your savvy skills with social media, search engines, and the Internet in general.
On behalf of the victim described in that thread, I would like to thank you for your ability and efforts to bring attention to this matter. No doubt this is true for the many other victims who come to this site to tell their stories.

Congratulations, George. Yours and Gino's efforts over the last 15 years have shed more light on the pseudoscientific nonsense that we know as polygraphic lie detection than any other source that comes to mind.
Although the fruits of this "truth-sharing" have not yet been realized, I still fully believe, that in spite of various powerful self-interested parties determined to prevent such, that your persistence and patience will eventually prevail and that the truth will eventually set us free from this plague.
Best Wishes, Drew
