As for proof in the novel read the fifth chapter of First Strike (specifically pgs 45 and 46). And I doubt Halsey was involved with Orion due to her lack of clearance for access to Johnson's medical records. Which wouldn't really make sense since if she was involved she wouldn't need be fed the paris/BS spoof version. [Edited on 08.30.2007 6:06 PM PDT]
