Email will do. Thanks. > According to the Washington Post & Washington Times, it was the CIA's Technology Transfer Division that produced the report. The director was named, one Guy Dubois. How it got into the papers, I'm not sure (can't find original story). Sen. Garn was the big guy in Congress pushing for sanctions; the White House did not want sanctions. Seems it died down quickly after that. There were several additional revelations about sales of microelectronics and some other COCOM contraband. Sanctions were not imposed.
