#6  In this, as the others(San Bernardino, Orlando, Boston), we'll find a dominant manipulative matriarch serving as an intermediary, in the guise of a diminutive companion.

We dominant males underestimate their coordinated influence on repressed males. They cannot comprehend the amazing number of unprotected soft target clusters.

These have been trials to evaluate approach and the effectiveness of engagement strategies against model targets.

#4  Found my bags in a escorted terminal warehouse search. Items spatially ordered by control type(checked, carryon, abandoned) and cross indexed by size, color and composition(hard, soft, wheeled(2-4), shipping container, exotic(baby (stroller, carseat, crutch, walker, laptop, phone, purse). Even items clearly tagged with names, addresses and flight information were held for passenger pickup, to get a video record of the physical release I suppose. Everything had a 'where found' grid reference tag. I'm assuming that was a NTSB crash protocol.

Laptop and phone release required visual inspection and video record of successful startup and password access.
