There was a burgeoning controversy over David KE Bruce of OSS. Antara was considering putting it in the email but was warned about any of the recipients marking at as 'spam', there was much pressure from Summers etc.
i. The Germans have apparently assumed that gradual use of the David KE Bruce blackmail was about getting ahead in the engineering sector over two generations (after the 1980 arrangement.) The 1980s gen gets the BTech, the next gen gets familiar with those in the West who were cowered enough to share credit.
ii. The British have assumed that the David KE Bruce blackmail was about an elevated network of high defence establishments in DC which would exclude the British, merely CPUSA and its allies since 2009.
iii. The Agency has assumed that the David KE Bruce blackmail was about protecting 9/11 masterminds or maybe it was its stated position.
iv. Antara had understood that for her, David KE Bruce was meant to be a cartography challenge, if she could remember names from the European countryside. Kolkata men had been very sceptical about Antara scrutinising maps.
It was true that in boys' schools of Kolkata, back in the 1990s and even later, popular books included 'Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus' and 'Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps'.
