  Historic Houses - Rundlet-May House
Rundlet's taste for the best formal Federal furniture is also evidenced by a set of white painted fancy chairs, veneered night stands and bureaus, a rare commode-chest, and a serpentine-top dressing table.
Three succeeding generations of the Rundlet and May families sparingly added later pieces, but as a whole the furniture in the house composes one of the finest collections in the Federal style associated with a single property.
Fortunately, Rundlet's own foresight has spared the Society the burden of a total restoration, for "his house was built large enough and built right, stands unaltered and needing no alterations, having lasted out the lifetime of the owner...

 Historic Houses - Rundlet-May House
It is impossible to determine from these if Rundlet hired an architect, but he did utilize skilled joiners and craftsmen from the area, and it is possible that Ebenezer Clifford (1746-1821), the leading joiner in Portsmouth, contributed to the design of the house.
Rundlet's strength of purpose, his desire-as an outsider to command respect, his strong interest in technical innovation, and his background as a farmer's son influenced both house and landscape designs.
Rundlet himself added a summer kitchen and well house, and his technological interests led him to install an early central heating system.

 The Political Pit Bull: The "9/11 Bombshell" That Isn't   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Rundlet attempts to back-up E&P's conclusion that the 9/11 Commission was not told of the meeting and also, like E&P, implies that there was a cover-up of the meeting.
Rundlet, however, does not seem to have any firsthand knowledge that this meeting was not disclosed to the 9/11 Commission and relies on the same press reports that E&P cited in it's original piece.
And frankly, that Rundlet is using his former title of 9/11 Commission counsel to bolster the false claim that the Bush administration covered-up this meeting is disturbing.

But Rundlet writes that a "mixture of shock, anger, and sadness overcame" him when he read about Tenet's "special surprise visit" to see Rice in July of 2001.
Rundlet suggests that the "withholding of information" from the Commission may constitute a crime, and scoffs at Cofer's excuse in Woodward's book.
"If one could suspend disbelief to accept that all three officials forgot about the meeting when they were interviewed, then one possibility is that the memory of one of them was later jogged by notes or documents that describe the meeting," Rundlet continues.
