* Fergie:

After the initial phase of the investigation left many of more than
200 suspects on the loose, the Dutch authorities turned to a kind of
cellular door-to-door search - mass text messaging in search of
criminal information.

IIRC, this was tried in Germany as well, but didn't yield too many
results.  (Somewhat of surprising because there's a German tendency to
denounce. 8-)
