 BFD. The best you can do is one error when working from memory,
 compared to your constant distortion and twisting of the story
 as clearly shown in the postings.

 This merely shows Croasmun has a problem with English
 comprehension. Apparently had does not mean he was seen with it,
 but that it is a reasonable conclusion.

 EC> "Slashing the tires" means that something was used to

 No, slashing is a more specific form of damaging.

 And that is *NOT* slashing by any definition I know. Slashing
 requires an extended cut along the surface.

 OTOH, now Croasmun is suggesting Buchanan stalked Shearer armed
 with a nail gun? Wow! That answers it all.

 Actually, I don't recall that at all. There are quite a few web
 postings on it, of varying reliablilty, but I just rechecked
 Kovach's book, and I do not find it there. I am using the web
 version, which is not complete, but it is linked as I gave you.

 BTW, since the guests were confronting Buchanan outside, how
 woudl they hear air slowly seeping? If they were in the house
 how would they hear it also? It must have been a big leak, or
 thin wall. Very thin walls. That and a quiet group.

 EC> But Bob says Buchanan used a knife.  And Bob says that
 EC> Buchanan appeared to be carrying that knife when the police

 Earl keeps distorting what I said. He displays either
 dishonesty, or difficulty with the english language. Appeared to
 have is not the same as apparently had. I said the latter.

 EC> And Bob will keep on doing those things.  It is not just
 EC> what he does.  It is who he is.

 And Earl will keep distorting, misquoting, trying to hide the
 facts, and outright lying. It's not what he does, it is who he
 is.

 Just use the link I gave and read the book.
