 		Help with press conference
Okay, I've been accepted as an attendee for the press conference. They ask that I put the question I am intending to ask in my acceptance email due by 11pm tonight.

Group - what should I ask? I am attending as Ella Mentry, investigator for the Journal of the Paranormal. I indicated in my email that we had a long interest in the area due to its background with the Ashram, etc. and had designated their area as a "hot spot" for paranormal activity. I also said that sources had told us that Dale was asking for help with what seemed to be occult or psychic phenomena.

Help me out here guys. I want to ask the question that will be the most help to the group.

You don't know as I am mostly a lurker, but I'm really looking forward to this opportunity to contribute.

 		Acceptance
Hi all. It appears 'I' (Dr. Faust) was accepted for the press conference! Here's the text of the e-mail I received:

Quote:
* Please read this entire message before responding *

Dear Dr. Faust:
I am pleased to inform you that you have been selected to participate in the
Aglaura NJ Telephone Press Conference this Sunday, March 9th at 1:00PM EST. As
we are rushing to prepare this event on very short notice, we must insist that
you reply to this e-mail before 11:00PM tonight, Saturday March 8th, confirming
your availability to participate at the designated time. Please put the
words "I accept" into the subject line of your reply. After receiving your
confirmation, we will forward you the toll-free phone number and PIN you will
need to access the call as well as instructions on how to participate. If we do
not receive an acceptance by 11:00PM tonight, we will move your name to the
alternate list and replace you on the caller list with one of the existing
alternates. We also ask that, to aid in the efficiency of conducting the press
conference, you submit the question you intend to ask in the body of your
acceptance letter. You will not be rejected for not doing so; this is only a
request on the part of the Mayor.
Thanks for you application and we hope to hear from you soon.

Lorraine Tweed, admimistrative assistant
for Pat J. Dobbs
Mayor of Aglaura NJ


Here's my reply:

Quote:
Hello,

I'm very sorry for the (3rd) resend, but this e-mail account is being very finicky today. Hopefully Eve over in the Tech. Department will have my University e-mail address set up soon.

Anyway, thank you very much for your letter. I will definitely be there.

The question I am planning to ask is as follows: What were the events leading up to the accident involving Mr. Sprague and his family, including their visit to a nearby amusement park? What, if any, abnormal circumstances surrounded this accident? Please be aware that I will be talking to my colleagues about this conference, so we may decide to change the subject of this question before the press conference takes place.

Also, if I may ask, who were the other six people accepted to take place in this conference? Thank you again for your reply.

Professor Stephen Faust, Ph.D.
Dept. of Paranormal Sciences
State University of New Jersey


Anyone else get accepted? Any other ideas for questions i might ask to get good info?

-Danny D.

Hi everyone. The "Colonel" at Fort Dix got me in. YEA!! Here is the email I sent. It was more official looking than what is here:


Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion
610 Fort Dix Road
Fort Dix, New Jersey 00190


6 March 2003

Mayor Pat Dobbs
Aglaura, NJ

Dear Mayor Dobbs,

On 15 February 2003 Specialist Henry Potter was reported AWOL (Absent Without Leave) from duty and is still AWOL at present.

During the investigation that followed, it was learned that Specialist Potter witnessed a fatal accident on 14 February 2003 at 1630 Hrs. on Bud Town Road just past Rt. 642 in Aglaura and may have rendered aid until proper response personnel could arrive.

I would like to be present at the 9 March Press Conference to discuss if any information that has been learned since by either of our investigative teams could be of any benefit to the other.

Point o f contact is the undersigned at (xxx) xxx-xxxx or Myssfitz@xxxxxx




URSULLA F. FITZ
Colonel, U. S. Army
Commander, Headquarters Battalion

________________________________________________________

I got home and checked my mail at 10:45. I had just enough time to reply that I accept. So, I didn't add in my question. Here is that email.



Date: Sat, 8 Mar 2003 19:53:23 -0800 (PST)
From: "Myssfitz" <myssfitz@xxxxxx |
Subject: I AGREE
To: pdobbsSPLATaglauranj.org




I was busy on post, and did not receive email until just now. I am not sure of the question I will ask. I am sorry if this is an inconvenience on my part. As I am still reviewing the report.

Looking forward to tomorrow.

HOOAH!

Cololnel Fitz

_______________________________________________________

So can I please have more help? I too want to ask the right question that will help us (as a group) the most.

Thanks again Very Happy

 		Thanks for the transcript...that kind of thing is a lot of work! Anyone care to summarize what we learned from this? I read it and don't feel like I know much more than I did before. Except that the Mayor isn't an accomplished public speaker and he lacks backbone. Makes me wonder how he got elected. Unless he got elected for those very reasons...so he could be manipulated.

Great job to all the people who participated.

 		learned
I got two things from it
1) more graffitti exists - I asked Sam for pictures
2) the link to sonsofdon

So I think that at least #2 was the point of the conf and the rest was filler. Don't know if they were winging that graffitti answer or if it was something that we were supposed to learn.

 		What did we learn?
I the biggest thing we get from this is that the brothers have pull over more than just Dale. It is beginning to sound like entire town is controlled by the mob. As that is the case I think we need to look into how this affects the town, what and who else do they have there fingers in? Can we use this knowledge to lean on the Mayor to get what we need from him?

I have to say I really enjoyed all of the 'family' reference and the fact that in the town they 'Take Care of there own'.
