I know that people get uptight (and/or stupid) about a lot of things - but I find it really hard to believe that two guys would beat up a useless professor over an issue like this.

This sounds odd. I hate to suggest that this professor faked the attack - but it does make me wonder...

Anyone?

There's snow on the ground out there, so the cops will be able to go over the crime scene and collect evidence. SInce a tooth was said to be broken, there will be blood on the ground. That will be in the impressions left in the snow from the scuffle. Tire tracks should also be present, because I'm sure they salted the roads and the temps would have left the dusty salt all over the dry, plowed roadside.

If they alledged attackers waited for the guy to exit his house, they're not going to be so gentle with forcing him off the road. Now when clowns tailgate someone to force them to stop, most folks keep going. They sense immanent attack. The ones that stop are the hardcore and braindead nitwits. Being close to 10^oF, nitwits will be very unlikely to stop to get out to talk. They'll speed up and run into town, which I think was close by.

Then there's the wool gloves. Folks that drive trucks and have the inclination to beat folks that pss them off, just don't wear wool gloves. They wear leather. Wool is nice, but it's just not warm enough, it's slippery and it doesn't wear well at all. It's glove liner mat'l. People that intend to deliver a beating would never wear them. They wear leather. It protects their hands. Especially in those temps. Women and yuppies wear wool gloves.

I think it's a hoax.
