Well, to be blunt, that wasn't too successful of a chat. He needs to think that you know more before he'd trust you. You're going to have to answer his questions well before he'll answer yours.

At this point, it's you that's gotta do the proving that you're someone to talk with, and you haven't broken that ground with him at all.

To that end, I wouldn't think it's a good idea to start trying to conquer other topics, until you get success with one.

Bringing up other issues, especially under the guise of feeding him partial information and seeing how he (doesn't) react might simply accomplish giving him info that he's not yet supposed to have.

It is a little like when we were chatting with Reggie. Clear, concise conversation was the way to get information out of him. Trying to do the whole "The penguin walks at midnight!" thing just confused the snot out of everyone, Reggie included.

"ramp up the pressure"

If we take cues from the content at Becker's desktop at NRU, a couple of things come to mind that might annoy him (if that is what we want to do).
There's Jim Stein, the guy Becker fired, and there's that memo to the staff, instructing them not to talk to the press.
Could that info be combined somehow to pressure Becker? Like posing as someone who met Jim in a disgruntled state, talking about some top secret project at NRU, and suggest that the press might be interested in investigating further?
Or would that put Jim in harms way? I wouldn't want to do that.

Just throwing out an idea.
