Re: [HOE] Re: was Doomsayers - now Harrowed

hate to sound sorta stupid but maybe they had little flashy thingy like in men
in black. also these incidences would be few and far between. i mean th agency
could have used the he's insane tactic also. plus unlessthere where more than

person abit off and the only people who would listen would be the agnecy and
texas rangers and the epitath which became a super market tabloid so not
everyone beleived it.
