They also say that the "creative writer" Annie Jacobsen is a different person. A good roundup

The story started to fall apart pretty quickly when I dug into
it.The woman at the core of this story fancies herself as a "creative writer"
(just Google her) and indeed, it seems she got a bit creative in her narrative.Like Bruce, I believe that this kind of "boots on the ground" vigilance is what is needed on a larger basis. The trouble, as I found with this story,
are over-zealous, over imaginative or out right paranoid people that are unable, unwilling (or both) to step back and ask themselves some logical questions before pressing the panic button. --Brock ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as watha () monitortan com To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ipArchives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
