Indeed. I was disappointed at first because the March 19 issue, which I figured would have had the story about Burnham, isn't online. Still haven't found if they ever caught the suspect. (Apparently, when they couldn't find him, they rounded up five other people who might have assisted him. Gotta get somebody, right?) — admin • talk  14:09, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
