Subject: Here's the plan, then...

You might've heard some of this from MacTaggart already, I'm not sure, but just to make sure I keep you both up to date:

Emma has set us up as a think-tank on mutant affairs. The Snow Valley Institute, or something like, and got us office space, and some secure housing in the East Village to use. LeBeau's off looking at wallpaper swatches for his place or something at the moment, or I don't know, measuring for a coffee table or something, and frankly, I'm fucking scared or the way he's taken to this interior decorating crap.

Anyway: Emma's set Betsy up as the head of the institute, and found ways to hide the costs associated with paying Remy and I enough to live on, and covering any other dodgy cash we might need, and she's already hired Amanda on as actual legit staff. She's also made some kind of special arrangements with several universities about degree study courses for anyone we hire, and I'm sure she can give you the details if you ask - I don't understand your strange colonial education system, and don't think I ever will.

Anyway, I've had the places sorted out with secure phone lines, but what we're missing is secure electronic communication. Which is what I'm writing to you lot for. Between the stack of genii that you've got as students, teachers and alumni, the school's e-communications outfit is the most secure I've ever run across, and I was hoping we could make use of it ourselves, on the quiet.

If you're OK with it, I'll speak with whoever Emma has doing tech crap about getting the snowvalley.org domain pointed at your set up for our email, and if you could reactivate Amanda's, LeBeau's and my accounts on the journal system, and set us up some kind of locked comms channel like the X-men have (including Betsy's account in that, obviously), I'd be massively grateful. It'd make it a damn sight easier to share intel between ourselves, as well...

I'll set our resident techies to work. The system's bulletproof for all intents and purposes, so you're right, it's probably simpler for you to make use of it than try and build a new one from the ground up. The intel-sharing's just an additional reason.

If worse comes to worse, the plug can be pulled from either side, too, which is a plus.
