It's what keeps me here!
Okay, I will throw my two centavos into the mix. We have a formula here for something that is just odd. We know that he was apparently good with electronics. We know that either he worked on comm towers or was trying to do so. Also, we know that he was attached to his computer. Lastly, Papa was heavily involved in ANSWER. It is possible that he went over there to do muckraking. he could have been looking for ways to video tape anything that could be peddled as a coalition "atrocity." Just how hard would it be for an electrincs whiz (according to reports) to rig a digital camera (especially the type that records to a DVD) in a tower and nightly post the videos to his ANSWER buddies? He may have been looking for folks who could lead him to some "horror stories." In so doing, he became part of a horror story.
Just a thought.
