My name is Mari and like some of you, I've been following the JonBenet Ramsey murder since it happened and have visited this site and every other possible site that has talked about the murder over the years.. Recently I've begun working for a company in Long Island, New York, as a receptionist and administrative assistant for a brokerage firm that is in some way associated with an organization called the Stillwater Committee, to my knowledge made up of a group of retired and semi-retired medical doctors, and some wealthy criminologists, pathologists, and forensics experts spread out from here to Switzerland whose grisly hobby appears to be the pursuit of solutions to famous unsolved murders. It seems that Stillwater with its deep pockets has, since February 1997, conducted an extensive private investigation into JonBenet's slaying and is poised to release their findings to the public in the coming months through a book that is called: Quiet, Samantha Foster. I thought I'd alert you to the website www.quietsamanthafoster.com which is about this organization. At the site, their Artemis diary entries are particularly intriguing. |

"The special multimedia support provided by the BeOS may, for a small number of users, outweigh the disadvantages of maintaining two large, complex operating systems on one PC. Of that group, however, it is likely that only a tiny number of users will find that support so attractive that they would be willing to ***forego*** Windows, and its huge base of compatible applications, altogether." I think the justice may have meant "forgo," meaning "to go without," rather than "forego," which, as I recall, means "to go before." |
forego: to go before; precede forgo: 1. to give up the enjoyment or advantage of 2. to do without |
