Did a comparison with other famous missing people, thought this result was interesting

"Natalee Holloway": 1.3 million hits
"Jimmy Hoffa": 818,000 hits
"Chandra Levy": 244,000 hits

"George Smith" missing: 93,000 hits
"Natalee Holloway" missing: 629,000 hits

What is it about this case that has caused it to become the most famous unsolved missing persons case since Hoffa?  Maybe the most famous ever?

Well, for starters, it was a case and a face I could instantly identify with. I felt like my girls came very close to going on that trip and not returning. I instantly adopted Natalee into my heart. The story reached out, got ahold of my heart, and has not let go.

COVER-UP

THE DISLIKE FOR ONE JVDS ...........

THE HOPE THAT JVDS GETS SNATCHED & DISAPPEARS FROM THE PLANET

THE HOPE THAT SOMEONE HAS THE BALLS TO TELL THE TRUTH FINALLY

THE HOPE THAT ARUBA WILL BE INVADED BY CHAVEZ

THE HOPE THAT ARUBA SINKS UNDER A TIDAL WAVE ...........

THE HOPE THAT THE KALPOES CRASH THEIR CAR INTO A TELEPHONE

POLE , KILLING ALL INSTANTLY .............

THE HOPE THAT PVDS & ANITA DROWN IN THEIR POOL ...............

THE HOPE THAT NATALEE WILL BE FOUND & THE FAMILY HAS CLOSURE

THESE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT KEEP BRINGING ME BACK ..

[ala_gunslinger]

Actually, any quantum singularity would do the trick!

[Frank]

Widget, I love your poetry! So gentle and specific and for a moment I could close my eyes and imagine...

The air tasted good at the thought...

Keep it up!

Gunslinger ,I have had thunder and lightning off and on for days and not a drop of rain.  Am I not living right?  Our temperature yesterday exceeded any since 1830.  We broke another record today.  Send rain, just any amount of rain.  Water bill is going to cause divorce.

My dear Klass  <g> Hi
  I believe tat the N case as gererated so much interest and concern because the ALE and the island of Aruba  was so BLATENT in their disreguard for Natalee and her family.
  Americans will and have stood for a lot from oter countries  citizens  but  PLEASE NEVER throw it right back in our faces  or we will come out like a fighter in the prize fight ring !
  Tat is what got everyone so angry  and Beth and her friends  just made sure that all of us back here new about it also .
  BTW  although I have never spoken to you I just wanted to sat tat you do a splendid Job in all that you do for the SM board .  So from me please accept a personalThank you from Ohio

The guy over at scrux thinks it was all some orchestrated conspiracy to knock out web sites related to Natalee!  

Any idea when it will be back to normal?

Well, Roger did admit that his site was down this morning due to a Denial of Service attack.

Nope , no conspiracies here, our host has on a connection that would make it very very hard to knock out.

But they can not put a @#$@# hard drive in this server that will last. I wanted to get you all up and running asap, so I did the quick fix.

We are looking into alternatives so hopefully this will not happen again, but we unfortunately can not control a hard drive failure or two.

For those who are not in and were added recently, Red is working on it and it should be done in a couple of days.

Hi Jerry - thank you very much!  I hope we get the rest of the forum back soon!!  

Sorry if I didn't answer this post right away but I was goofing off, playing games..

Tom - tell Server Pronto to stop purchasing their hard drives from the "flea market"..

Easy

What is dos Santos' first name???

I don't know and I have asked several times.  I'm also supposed to get some pictures of Lorenzo, but have not thus far.

How much to talk the host into a mirrored-array?  SM has to be their most famous customer.

There is an Arthur Santos who I believe is Ally Santo's brother.  They both, Arthur and Ally are friends with Joran, Koen and Sander:

Her age, her demeanor, her promise, her ability to have become someone who contributed to society unlike many who have passed on before her, plus her family represented the best of Americans.  Her parents although divorced, behaved in such a way that any child would be proud of them.  Finding their daughter meant more to them than the money they had saved for a rainy day, finding their daughter was the ultimate and foremost thing ever minds.  They showed complete class in front of and away from cameras.  They never lost control except the one time when Beth broke down and cried in front of the cameras and I expect she had tried not to do that.  Everyone saw her pain, her agony, and the complete cover-up from Aruba and all those who cheer for the good guys, knew Beth & Dave were the good guys and Aruba was the worst of what any country could be, the very nasty remarks from Arleen, Tito, Ruben, and the hateful posts by Julia Renfro, the ugliest of them all whose hard is lined with lead and her veins run ice water --- that was what represented Aruba while Dave & Beth and their friends and family, who were very respectable and warm and friendly, represented Natalee.

It is being looked into. It is exhausting going from a standing start when these situations happen. I lost a whole day of work yesterday and half a day today on it.

Actually..I think Chavez and his minions are salivating at the impending fall of Aruba.....so like Cuba's demise.

I was told it was definitely not Ally Santos.  It was a guy that was at the casinos with them the night/morning after Natalee went missing.
