I don't guess there is any way to adjust these players so the signal would be more continuous?  Mine plays for 2 minutes and buffers for 2 minutes.  Drives me crazy!

I never have that problem with Real Player.

I'm on dialup and all of them act up now.  Didn't used to, but now they do.  I think I am getting everything.  It just stops, buffers and picks up where it left off.

Dave talking 0000 Dave is asking for help for tim who helped him when he needed it, very emotional tone in his voice, trying to give back what was given to him ...

Dana asks about advice the first day, getting hit and panicking.

Dave says you need family support, but you are in a panic.  His brother and BIL came and assisted him for support and initially he had booked a flight and was going alone but they insisted in accompanying him.  Preparation is the key and getting people to help out.

Dave says Tim Miller says they are planning a new search in June.  Dave says Tim is committed to return to Aruba and Jossy is coming on, wants Dave's opinion on recent events.

Dave is saying Dutch took over 10/2006 and review the base documents, they came to Aruba about a month ago to f/u on poilce files and develop a case and things are hard to come by.  They are trying.  Searched VDS property, did forensic testing, Dave not aware of testing.  Went to K2 and pure speculation.  Some says it was to test cell phones and pings and others say they are just looking around.

Dana asked Dave about fund raiser and how we can help.  Corporate sponors, Dave says, including the live auction, Harley-Davidson will be auctioned off.  Vans and good food here, everyone having a good time.

Dana asks about Dave family.  He says they are ok, but stressed when they know the dutch are professional and when they execute search on primary suspect premises, it gives a high level of anxiety.  Making it day to day, keeping the faith from family friends and supporters.

The hogs and horses fundraiser is being held today at the Galveston County Fairgrounds, Pickett Hall, Hitchcock, Texas.  We are going by our roving reporter, Red from SM, talk go some who are here and Cindy is talking about mission.  Cindy is having a great time/  There are about 300 people there.  It's their largest fundraiser that pays the bills and gets them through the year.  They have bands, a guest singer from Toronoto and the person who wrote the song dedicated to Natalee - is from Toronto -- their guest, will be there.  Texas ES does a lot..... what does the average case entail.

that initial phone call, she works with law enforcement and is a liaison between family and law enforcement.  large chore, larger than she thought but very fulfilling.

Dana says one of the kindest persons he ever met is Tim Miller.  .  . kind, dictionary describes him as kind.  

What is the commmitment for people with Texas ES.  Anyone can volunteer, but you need a special place in your heart for the missing, takes dedication and sacrifice - 40 hours per week --- no about 60 hours plus regular job, all-consuming.

[Dihannah1]

Sounds like fun,  I would love to be there right now!

Hawgs, not Hogs, bikers --- are very supportive.  Texas ES was originally an equestrian mounted search.  NH case is probably forefront in media but there are many many, says Dana

She is saying average month or week is probably easier than average day.  Average day is 3-5 missing persons per day, some cannot be worked -- some are runaways we can close in a matter of minutes and once or twice per week, some have to be gotten down and dirty, focus daily and hourly.

These people, Dana says, put up their life savings, asking about government support.

As of now we have not received any federal grants (community support, but now they will need other things as they get calls from all over the world).  Dana promises he will be at the next fundraiser.

What can people/listeners do as far as funding.  Go to TXE.org (I missed that).  Credit cards, members, people who can coordinate, poster tours, phone managemenent, so many services we need voluntarily across the country, want chapter in every state.  Cindy Wisdom is her name.  She is on Hawgs & Horses, gone to break.
