I have had no problems with the links. The thing that impressed me the most is that I could "tiny-ize" a huge google maps link, and not only was the link accurate, but it would also point the "street view" in the same direction that I wanted to look. So I was hooked after that.CyPhyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05900955051256847614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-53661085292990718212010-03-15T02:54:32.691-05:002010-03-15T02:54:32.691-05:00@BITM

Just wondering whether to start using it or wait until things get ironed out.<br /><br />Anyway, I can't help but to agree the FBI may very well be at Cornell unofficially due to the recent and curious events of 3 drownings in less than 30 days. There is obviously a problem that needs to be identified.<br />It appears they are insinuating the 3 deaths were suicide, however the 2 previous deaths don't have an official determination that I can find on the web.Monique777https://www.blogger.com/profile/16429479918613667149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-88568301932184106192010-03-14T01:48:30.491-06:002010-03-14T01:48:30.491-06:00@ Monique777 & CyPhy

Various agencies will do "unofficial" things, especially as such doesn't require any papertrail. It could also be just an agent or two who were curious. Althought CyPhy may be right, that perhaps the student was mitaken. Who knows.

They have opted to jump into a gorge to end their life.<br />It almost seems spur of moment with the guy today. He was carrying his back-pack and maybe while in route to his next class set his back-pack down, took out his wallet and jumped to his death.

I couldn't find out much about the Ithaca victims on the internet. They always say that cause of death is undetermined, foul play is not suspected, blah, blah, blah, pending toxicology studies, but that's the last you ever hear about it.<br />The differences between the Ithaca MO and LaX MO are interesting and revealing. It is apparent that the MO is based on the "story" that the community will believe. In Ithaca, the community believes that it's a long, bleak winter, Cornell is a tough school, and some kids just can't take it and decide to end it all. What they don't bother to question...why is it only the young men who snap and end up in the water?<br />In LaX, the story the community believes is that there are 55 bars downtown and a huge drinking problem among college age men. They get plastered, home to the river like spawning salmon, and fall in. Again the problem...women never get drunk in LaCrosse? Fascinating...also insofar as both communities are in denial.CyPhyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05900955051256847614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766322694484209381.post-44827663724821814722010-03-12T23:21:05.613-06:002010-03-12T23:21:05.613-06:00How long had William been missing, if at all?
