I wondered about that as well, especially since the papers would have been
all over the mysterious hero who gave up his life to save others. There
also would have been descriptions given of the man from bystanders.
However maybe Nick just ordered Natalie to fake up an Autopsy
report. After all he couldn't just make the case disappear.
I also wondered how Nick explained the holes in the roof of the nursery and
how Roger ended up in the compost heap. And how badly he was hurt. The
latter is something that police get investigated over.

Subject: Anybody here going to DragonCon?
Nearly every year at Dragon*Con, I meet other FK fans just by virtue
of wearing my FK logo T-shirt. I figured this year I'd pretend I had
a klew and see in *advance* if anybody's coming instead of just
hoping to stumble into people! I know our esteemed ListFounder is
usually there, and I'd very much like to meet any other fans who'll
be in town.
If you're coming to the con, drop me a line. Maybe we can have a
small FK fen gathering!

Subject: Episode Discussion: UnReality TV
1) Schanke is his normal amusing comic relief. Could he get any more
over the top?
2) Nick's purple jacket. Talk about channeling Miami Vice fashions for
a couple of scenes.
3) Nick: "they were in Vietnam, they were in the Persian Gulf and now
they are in the bathroom."
Natalie: "Well the sight of blood does strange things to people."
Nick: "Tell me about it."
4) amazingly powerful video-editing system they have for that news
camera...and the camera's ability to record at extremely high
resolutions in poor light is truly a mark of unreality.
5) Schanke's comment about how every cop on the beat will be carrying a
camera with him is amusing prophetic. Dashboard cameras in police
cruisers have been come standard equipment in many places and I know
that a minicamera in the hat or strapped to the shoulder is being tested
in Great Britian.
6) Technically, Nick and Schanke should have dove for the floor when
that M-16 opened up on them in the apartment building. A normal house
wall ain't gonna stop assault rifle rounds. Given that the badguy was
strafing the center of the door, they should have gotten down and well
to the sides. Standing up by the jam is very Hollywood....but also is
commonly the way things were done in the era in television.
7) Good grief. another Nick flying sequence. Boy, does that style of
trying to actual show Nick in flight look bad.
8) why did Nick force Danny to move on? What harm would having Danny
around cause? He obviously wasn't killing anyone or Metro Homicide
would already have been involved.

I wanted to complement Tim on his LC radio monologue in an earlier post. Well
done!

I wondered about this too, especially after having Roger Jameson turn up as a
patient on my Chemistry analyzer last week.

Is any one else considering seeing "The Elephant Man" in Toronto this fall?
I've been invited by a friend from New York, and wondered if any one else might
be around.

A bunch of people from the Friday night UF chat were talking about going and
I am considering coordinating with them. I cant remember if they came up
with a date yet.
