Dear Lord, I hope we don't get a live shot of them finding her

In all due respect, I hope we do find her all decomposed...it was this island that stamped the life out of this beautiful child. And Aruba and the world should see the product of their work. If Nat is dead and in heaven, her body can still speak...she can still point to the guilty parties

We've been down this road before. I remain skeptical. But then again, maybe they know for a fact she is there. Who knows.

It would make sense they dumped her body in the pond, rather than risk being spotted traveling to another part of the island to dispose of her.

I gather that the pond is more like a catch basin. Much of the time it is dry. What a perfect place to bury a body. Joran was at the club frequently, and had to know about the basin.

[spectre]

Be back tomorrow. We'll all definitely know if she is there or not.

Later, sw

Please explain to me what it would be a perfect place since much of the time it is dry? I'm confused on this one.

think of Laci's mom.....never ever to have a happy Christmas again as long as she lives.........

my nephew was killed on my birthday......so from now on, it will be a very low key birthday for me....

what=why

[pnz1]

Lots of theorys on Greta, etc. is that they may not be looking for a body specifically.

"God bless Beth...we need not worry about her, she is made of Birmingham steel."

beautiful sentiment.......

"Joran told his mothere, and I think she reported it in an interview, that he would not have been out and in this trouble had she not been away"

maybe what he means is if Mommy had been home, Daddy may not have kicked Junior out of the house so Daddy could have his playmate over?

I think the Big Sloot is a creep and I'll bet he has other things to hide......

[Rusty Roberts]

"What is surprising to me is that Natalee's family members don't seem to know or have not been told the things that the media talking heads are telling them. ..."

My gut is telling me that the family is playing dumb on purpose in order not to get caught letting out any real information.

Can't be questioned on what they haven't been told.

Also, once Joran crossed 15-16 versions of what happened, I can understand how they just tuned him out and are waiting until some verification is put forth.

Firefighters drain a lake, Tuesday, July 26, 2005, in Oranjestad, Aruba searching for Alabama teenager, Natalee Holloway, who vanished nearly two months ago while vacationing in the island. Edwin Comemencia, a police spokesman, confirmed that the draining of the lake across from the Marriott Hotel was part of the investigation into Holloway's disappearance but would not comment further. The draining was expected to take up to 24 hours. (AP Photo/Pedro Famous Diaz)

To be fair, it was not the whole island and many of the people on that island do want to help find her. Let the guilty pay with all they have.

My father is almost 92 and healthy, and mom is 86 and going strong. I thank the Lord for every day he gives me with them.

Methane gas detector also will be used per Tim Miller of Equusearch who is now back in Aruba. Tim said prior to when they wanted to search this area they were told that there was no place to move the water which he knew was untrue. Tim said that there was water in the pond on 5/30. He said the only way to search the pond is by draining it due to all the debris.

Not to down play the Kalpoes guilt once again. But maybe Joran still did this by himself. The brothers may have came and picked him up and that is why they were seen there in the car together at the Racquet Ball Club, this was the pick-up point.

That reminds me of something Jossy said tonight on I think Greta, that the spot where the car with the 3 was seen is more of a pick-up point.

[Timeout]

Law enforcement sources told CNN that a local gardener gave them information that makes them want to search the pond

Wasn't it "a gardener" who was said to have spotted the boys in the Racket Club parking lot?

[texasbluebell]

Jossy said the "salt pan" as he called it is from 2 to 6 feet deep. When some of the guys were walking around in it, the water seemed to be up a little above waist level on what looked like a tall guy.
