But if your unwitting tipper was saying this to someone within his firm, yes, that was my point. It would not be hard to get info by talking to people around the office, and even if you did, that would get you on the list of people who had information, but if you weren't trading ourself (as the dead guy didn't seem to be), it would still make identifying your note taker as the real tipper quite difficult.

Huh? Cornblum was sneaking around the office in early hours. How is it just as easy to connect him to the insider trading if he's going around asking people what they know? It's a lot more likely for the SEC to make a connection when someone working on the deal can say "whoops, I must have said something to Cornblum" than "whoops, I must have tossed some notes in the trash can and someone grabbed them out."
