Oh, I'm glad you had an opportunity to learn something you didn't know about. Yes, the "Unabomber' had the FBI twisted in knots for years. I remember it pretty well, since I was coming of age through all of that.
Here's a quote from the FBI famous historic cases site: "How do you catch a twisted genius who aspires to be the perfect, anonymous killer—who builds untraceable bombs and delivers them to random targets, who leaves false clues to throw off authorities, who lives like a recluse in the mountains of Montana and tells no one of his secret crimes?"
It was such an enormous relief when they finally tracked him down after almost two decades of letter bombing. In the end, it was his brother who helped to solve the case.

Of course it had to be someone he knew to help catch him. Thanks for the extra info. Love a bit of crime reading.
