dear incident person Harpy /?// what in the world is a Harpy ???? BTW that exchange of information issue is actually a real safety problem as you have mentioned ... i should think it would be a good idea to speak with your elected persons and let them know about this incredibly large hole in the fence ... it would seem to me that a better idea would be for the information to be transfered to a sealed envelope then to an officer who would pass along to the appropriate agencies if required ... this is simply a question of privacy and personal safety ... regards On Tue, Jul 5, 2011 at 9:15 AM, ed donnen <spliced.surprise@gmail.com>wrote: > Night of the Harpies, Part II > Oh, you still reading this?
