That is probably because she was in the town when everything went down. So for the sake of continuity, she's not responding.

I dont think so. It was his sister Samantha that was on the recording and Kristen is Andrew's Girlfriend from Berkley. Also in the most recent blog Andrew mentions that she is shocked by so many people asking to be friends on Facebook.

New blog post:
Quote:
First things first. I have to admit, I wasn't sure anyone was actually going to find this blog, or that people would care enough to leave comments. I guess I was wrong — I've had trouble keeping up with all of the messages of concern and advice you've all sent me. I promise I'm reading them, though, and I'll try to respond if I can.

Unfortunately, that's about the only good news I've had so far. It's now been four days since I got Sam's message… and five days since she left it, as one of you pointed out to me. I was so upset about her message that I didn't even pay attention to the date at the beginning.

I still can't reach anyone.

That means there's not a lot to report, I guess. Like me, Kristen was surprised so many of you read the blog (and apparently a little scared, at first, since a lot of you offered to be friends with her on Facebook). She agrees that it's a good idea, though, if only because it makes me feel like I'm doing something.

When I told her I was going to start the blog, she joked that most people probably wouldn't even believe that Piedmont exists, since it's impossible to find on a map. And I guess she's right… from your comments, apparently most of you have never heard of Piedmont. It makes sense, though: if you aren't from Piedmont, or the next town – which is well over 40 miles away – there's pretty much no reason you would have.

Since a lot of you asked, though: the entire town of Piedmont, Utah, has a population of 183. 182, since I left for college…though the Ritters had a little girl just after Christmas, so I guess that evens it out. Aside from the occasional birth or death, though, not much ever changes in Piedmont. It's an old mining town in southeastern Utah, so there are a lot of mountains, and a handful of nice camping areas up along the Henry River. It's a small town, even as small towns go. We've got a single bakery, a single bar, and only one main road. And all the standard small-town staples: a neighborhood gossip, a town drunk, an old war veteran.

Until I left to come to Cal, I lived in Piedmont my entire life. At first, people here thought I came from an isolated town of rednecks. We're not, though, and Piedmont isn't so much isolated as self-reliant. Most of the folks living in Piedmont grow up there, get married there, and never end up leaving. For a lot of them, there's no good reason to go anywhere else.

So there you go, that's Piedmont. Hopefully that'll help…


BTW- who is Kristen again? Do we know yet?

Ahh, good call. It's awesome how I'm ALREADY mixing up names!

Yet another blog update, but still no new information. He just mainly talks about his family.

Starting to look like you're right about being on the outside looking in, Feriwiccan.

I sent a message with the suggestion that he contact the media instead of the police. See if that does anything.

But I agree this does sort have a feeling of "Watching" rather than "Playing".

I don't know what else to do, so I've been searching Google every couple of hours for news related to Piedmont and southeast Utah. Nothing for the last couple days, but I just got an e-mail alert that led me to this traffic bulletin from Millstown, which is the closest major town in the area:



This could be a coincidence. It probably is. And if something really were wrong, then (like a lot of you have pointed out) wouldn't there be some sign of it in the news? But it's been almost a week now…


note: Millstown Utah doesn't exist Smile

Alright... I'm down so, are we saying right now the only modes of 'contact' are the blog and FB?

And where did you guys find Kristen's FB?

And I'm guessing this is some kind of OOG 'Joker'?

Wow. A whole new generation of AS fans. My fave part is the epileptic seizure. And, of course the breathing and honk, honk, honk, zap. . .

Michael Crichton? Try Next plus AS. Who wants to start the Jack Bauer of Next joke site? That'll put you inside before there is even an outside.

The least they could have done was have the posters write differently from each other. A little bad syntax, misspelled words, and no caps or punctuation in a couple would have been cool. Too bad. Idea

Liking the feel of this one....
