(And while I'm off on that little tangent, I also note that the much-adored Mr. Charles Croes, an eyewitness to that scene, said that Joran several times politely offered to help go find Natalee, IIRC -- a statement that has been ignored by those who want to paint Joran as an obvious devil.) I haven't ignored it, in fact I mentioned it in a post because it seemed like an appropriate response and was so opposite of the Twitty's characterization. I have since decided for myself that Croes style did not threaten Joran, he was able to spin his own tale on his own terms. The Twitty's were likely more confrontational, more to the point, which knocked him off his game and made him defensive.

The ones I've read at least seem right on the money (ncluding the one just now).
I just don't have time to read all the replies on all the threads. So if I say something someone's already pointed out, I'm sorry I missed it.
