I did mention that specific fact about the 2 feet of water. I specifically said the family member said the car hit a divider, skid across the grass, hit a tree and ended up found under 2 feet of water...can't you read?

You need to read the NY Post, NY Times, Newsday, the list goes on if you want to get the new facts out of NYC. I didn't post the links because there would be 50. You have to remember just because where you live there are limited news outlets doesn't mean the rest of the world is like that.

Spend the time and research all the articles written about this. You will see many more over the next few days. These people were from NY and had municiple job careers there will be tons of coverage and the family will say a lot more.

Why do you want to take such a narrow view on things?

The organized campaign came from a group of people that are now doing anything they can to find and assist families that are missing loved ones. They are also doing stuff for the missing climbers on Mount Hood. They are trying to do some good and help create successful and positive endings to these situations - how dare you criticize them just because you are not in the loop.

One thing is for sure you definitely earned that very large L embossed on your forehead.

Actually you said, "A family member also said the car went through a divider and then hit a tree and ended up in the creek submerged under two feet of water. "

That's quite a difference between UNDER two feet of water and two feet of water OVER the roof.

You have to remember just because where you live there are limited news outlets doesn't mean the rest of the world is like that.

Are you saying we should take the word of somebody like YOU rather than people who are ON THE SCENE? And we are NOT limited by any means.

how dare you criticize them just because you are not in the loop.

You are trying to characterize my criticism of your interpretation of an ongoing event with criticism of a group you no nothing about except what you're read more than likely.

And if I've learned one thing tonight, if you are holding yourself forth as some sort of "emergency news expert" of this forum, gathering news and passing it along, people better double check what you're telling them.

You need to read the NY Post, NY Times, Newsday,

Here's the link to the NY Post article right here; they still have them listed as MISSING.

Same with The New York Times

And Newsday doesn't have anything at all.
