Bio info from Cryptogon, which has been blocked in the UK, by the way. The Mitre Corporation, which has contracts with the Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, the IRS, and the FAA.

From the WSJ

Wheeler’s house in New Castle was dark Monday night and no one answered the door. Yellow police evidence tape was stretched across two wooden chairs in the kitchen, where several wooden floorboards were missing.”

So here's what I did for the MITRE Corporation, who possesses the very first .org domain name, given in 1985.

So you've got to wonder what was he working on and/or who did he upset? Unlike many people, I won't speculate, because I don't have enough information to form an opinion. We only have just a few of the puzzle pieces. Is there anyone who is a military-industrial complex buff who has a better clue as to what happened with poor Mr. Wheeler?
