I'll do you one better Greg, about 10 or so years ago a guy who lived in the San Diego area called his wife on the cell phone telling her "he was leaving Palmdale Calif and would be home in about an hour". He was never heard from again, they searched for months with no luck. About a year later some lawyer who liked to solve mysteries read the story an did some detective work himself. He suggested that authorities check the Calif aqueduct that runs under the freeway and see if that guy had driven his Explorer onto the freeway from an OFFRAMP and was driving against traffic and into the aqueduct. It turned out his hunch was correct and they found the Ford Explorer with the skeletal remains of that poor guy. How would you feel drinking that water as the Calif. aqueduct serves MILLIONS of people in So. Calif......
