The rest of us were their entertainment imo.
They only showed up to see how close we were. Making sly remarks. Having a good time.
Inside jokes.
Unwilling to explain themselves when asked.
It was obvious to me these posters knew something.
Never contributing anything helpful.
Not here to learn or gain understanding.
When you already know, it changes your whole demeanor.
That's the way I saw it.
I could be completely wrong.
Maybe they just stumbled upon this forum and coincidentally made sly comments
related to this case without knowledge or intent of doing so?
One had said he was 6 months from retirement.
After the first FBI news conference they vanished.
My gut feeling is that they were related.
There actually were a few times good posters made me laugh. They never had anythibg to do with making fun of the crimes or the case.
I wish I could remember where to find one particular one and Who posted it. It made me laugh just ad hard as the on in this thread where it days the serial killer Paul Holes' bedroom.....
We were discussing the EAR composites. The poster posted a picture of a news caster announcing a rapist at large with a blown up composite of the suspect right behind him. The anchorman looked exactly like the sketch. It was HILLARIOUS. I recall the poster said something like, "I know I shouldn't but I can't help myself....."
This is off topic but I want to say it anyway...
After I wrote that last comment I started to reminisce my times on this board and with my fellow posters. OMG! I don't care if this sounds corny and old fashioned but suddenly I could hear Barbara Streisand's voice in my head singing..... MEMORIES... LIGHT THE CORNERS OF MY MIND... MISTY WATERCOLOR MEMORIES...... OF THE TIMES WE SHARED.......
I spent so much time running to the computer or my android to look on this board to see if there were any new developments and to read new analysis' of clues of other posters, then researching, reading those damn forensic books, EAR books, depositions of other killers, biographies criminals. My fellow posters here were all so dedicated and we were all so driven to find something, anything, that might help to unmask the EAR. The map of supposedly DANVILLE ---- the TEACHER'S DAUGHTER & SATO------ THE BATON------- THE ALPHA BETA SUPERMARKETS ------ THE CONTRACTORS AND CONSTRUCTION WORKERS -------- THE MEDICAL FIELD/HOSPITALS ------ EVA TAYLOR------ THE CAR JUNK YARDS------ LE or NOT LE ------- MILITARY OR NOT MILITARY ------ the SEVEN POINTED STAR ------- THE BULL TATTOO OR NO BULL TATTOO --------- THE REAL EYE COLOR ------- WAS HE VRS OR JUST EAR -----ONS ONLY OR ALSO EAR AND VRS ------ I could go on and on as you all know. Then there was around last Christmas when I got BANNED! AHHHHHHHHH! Only to find that other posters had the same shock. Winters said it had to do with trolls and using our androids. Oh my gosh, I had sweat profusely when I couldn't get on the board!!!!! It felt like some part of me was amputated!
When the EAR was caught, I felt like I had been carrying two big houses on my shoulders and they just dropped to the ground. I was so happy..... Then as time went by I couldn't believe that I was missing my fellow board members and this board. We were all so bonded by our desire to help all the victims get closure and to put this guy behind bars. I remembered the time I had house guests for a few weeks - I had to hide in the bathroom and pull out my I-pad and files from the cabinets to do EAR work. How pathetic! Then there was my big scare last October. There was a thunderstorm in the middle of the night when my phone rang. When I answered it there was no one on the other end. It was raining hard and there was both thunder and lightening. Suddenly, my bed was shaking and I screamed, AHHHHHHHHH! It's the EAR kicking down my door!!!! I thought to myself, all my posts are right and because of that the EAR has found me through my IP address and now he's going to kill me! I really thought that. I even got online and I was screaming for help to the moderators and to Nick and Claudius. Claudius only made me more scared by PMing, "close and LOCK all windows and doors!" Turned out it was an Earthquake I felt. That was the longest f****in' night ever!
I want everyone here to know that I appreciated ALL their efforts, hard work and dedication. I have nothing but utmost respect for all of you. And thanks for sharing the holidays with me, as together we continued to comb through all the attacks and clues piece by piece, over and over for the thousandth time while everyone else was in their backyards looking for Easter eggs, necking with their lovers on lovers lane on Valentine's Day, dancing with Leprechauns on St. Patrick's Day, trick-or-treating in costumes on Halloween.
Indeed, It was time well spent. Even if in the end it was the DNA that finally did the unmasking. Anyway, even Paul Holes was still digging into red herrings up to the last minute. I recall getting angry at him for running around with a map that no one even knew for certain if it belonged to the EAR, as he looked at pilots and developers.
But I always knew that......
KNOCK ......
KNOCK ......
KNOCK........
on his door was getting closer and closer.......
