[ExI] Mike Treder is missing

[John Grigg]

I enjoyed my online friendship with Mike, who was always very patient with
my questions, and I am very worried about him.  I hope this matter turns
out okay, but I have my fears.


When I was in the Boy Scouts, I remember my scoutmaster telling the other
scouting leaders about how dangerous Detroit could be.  He had attended a
large engineering conference there, and his company advised all the
employees going to always travel outside the hotel and conference center in
groups of no smaller than six, and despite that, there were still
muggings!


I suppose Paul Verhoeven chose Detroit to be the setting for Robocop, due
to it's history of decay and crime.  Ironically, I had been hearing stories
of a sort of Bohemian hipster renaissance in the city, but that still does
not make it a safe place for visitors.


Mike seemed to have an easygoing confidence in himself that may have proved
his undoing.
