Well, I'd put a dollar on him taking up some civilian post where he
can influence the acceptance of Clipper through industry.  Managing
director of an electronics firm.  Or head of one of the escrow
agencies perhaps.  That how things work here in Britain anyway -
most of our big company top management are ex spooks.  Especially
in the armaments and military-related side of things, like aircraft
companies.  In Baker's case I'd guess a telephone company.  Much
more likely that or something else civilian than another govt post
like NIST or the FCC.
