Yes indeedy, OMFG. Never thought of Blue Jays---who figure in larger
ways than meets the eye in Vineland---as cops, but that fairly well  
nails
it. Stellar Jays---the Jay of choice in most of the pacific coast and  
well
inland---make the cry of a Red-Tailed Hawk and are thus a "False
Raptor." Brock Vond's clumsy, failed attempt to carry off Prairie is
another kind of "False Rapture."

And I'm plenty suspicious of WTC building #7, oh yes.
