And Google does not cover the details in books, movies, ads, etc. where I have been trying to get help creatively by writing movie studios, movie stars, directors, film schools, popular writers, comedians, etc. As well as Wall Street, Madison Avenue, NFL Commissioners, news anchors, weather people, etc. That's what 224 613 is about. I have been trying to get Hollywood and elsewhere to put these numbers in movies, ads, TV shows, etc. They are showing up all over the place now after the trickle I got in the 1990s with more in the 2000s. And yet more in the 2010s!
I have had to think way outside the box often. I do write politicians too and many of these show up from time-to-time on my Facebook page. I kind of like some of the work Ivanka Trump has done on some issues.

In my experience working or volunteering in libraries in CO, MN and FL victims/survivors of crimes do not come to a stranger on a reference desk for help dealing with what is usually a very traumatic experience. Those who have been accused do and I once had a stalker along with my them live-in girlfriend of a woman who was researching her defense against a math professor at the U of MN who she had harassed and stalked. She had chained herself to his desk. This went on for what seemed about nine months in 1989-1990. My girlfriend at the time who was also my roommate got the worst of it. She now helps people get access to the court system in a midwestern state through interpreters. She hires and manages them. Probably Spanish and Native American translators. Survivors/victims of crimes would also need materials in their familiar language if they are not literate in English.
I have some stalkers/harassers on Talk of the Villages as well. Just ignore these law breakers. There are laws against such harassment in Florida.
