It has been almost 48 hours since the last sniper attack. It has been raining most of today - and I suppose that rain complicates sniping.

"They" don't seem to be any closer to catching him. The Defense Dept is going to put some sort of surveillance aircraft up to watch for gun fire.

Today the ever helpful local media have been giving us hints about "how to survive" and "how to be a good witness". Strange advice for us city people is the are telling us to "avoid well lighted places". And if we hear shots we should "get down and seek cover" and "ignore the victim" but "look in the direction of the shot" and try to find the shooter.
