Wow... go away for a couple days of R&R, come back to find that I appear to have dominated recent discussion. hmmm... Thanks to those that have offered support. I'm not too concerned about the negative stuff. I expected it to a point. As long as they are only flaming me, that's fine... I also commend those of you who are trying your best to help resolve this and those of you who just sign in to offer support and hope. There are only a couple rules about posting to remember. Please use the more secure methods on the contact us for posting clues or information directly related to this case and no posting information directly related to any individual. Again, the contact us methods are best for this purpose. Remember, your best intent may be wrong and there is no need to falsely accuse anyone! Happy posting... |

Anonymous: "what do belmont ca and bellevue wa have in common?" Both are associated with hi-tech/computer software industries, but they have a million other things in common. If this is a serious clue, please provide more detailed information on the Message Board or click on "Contact Us" and pass along your information. We've worked some solid leads on this side, have put the puzzle together, and are ready to move forward. With all due respect, we are focused and don't have time for distractions or a wild goose chase. However, we also recognize that there may be additional cases on the West Coast that we have not yet connected, so we don't want to silence you either. Do you have anything on Chino Hills CA, Northride CA, San Francisco, San Carlos CA, Everett WA, or Carson City NV? |

Okay, let's all chill for a bit...we're all working for the same purpose, we need to stick together. The way I see it, there are two sides to this matter -- one side that effectively gave up, and the other that has not and will not give up. All of us on this site are on the same mission, which is to seek truth, to find out what happened to Joshua, and to honor his memory. I'll leave justice, if it can be obtained, to the powers that be, if they care to give it. At this point...I just want to know what happened, so thoughts of Johsua being out there, alone, can finally end... |

me and Me To... Your comments show how little you know and how you need to learn to do some research before you speak or post. Actually, if you would take just a few minutes to actually view the web site, there is more information about the webmaster listed then what he probably cares to let you know about. I actually know the guy personally and he is exactly what he says he is... a volunteer... in the best sense of the word. If you don't believe me, a quick google search will show that he not only volunteers his time for a family he doesn't know by building this web site, he is an EMT with a local ambulance service and does training for EMTs, Fire Fighters, and Law Enforcement. I've seen him in action and judging by his response at a car accident, an anger management class is certainly not needed. If all this isn't enough, he has a full time job as a computer geek type :) (talking about stress :)). His past comments about speculation, preserving evidence and using less public methods for giving clues to people who can help are exactly correct. Even if one of us actually hits the speculation nail on the head, what good would it do here. It is going to take someone with enough info to go directly to the police to end this. In the mean time, what I can offer is this, support to my friend the webmaster for a job well done, and support for Joshua's family by offering hope and my sincere best wishes for a quick end to this nightmare. |

People, please. Lay off the webmaster. He volunteers his time and resources to do this important - and sometimes thankless - job. And no, he has no affiliation with the university. Please remain patient and don't abandon your posts. It is now just a matter of weeks before information will come to light that will allow everyone to put two and two together. There is no particular urgency. We want to do this right. |

I just realized we are once again nearing the anniversary of when Josh disappeared. Josh, we're still here, still searching, still asking questions ... I know if the situation was reversed, you wouldn't give up either; in fact, I think you would be relentless. So I'll use you for inspiration to keep on seeking until the truth is found...until you are found |

I care deeply -- and -- I'd like to believe that anyone who bothers to take the time to visit this website and offer an insight, also cares. As Joshua's case slowly recedes from the public eye, it's important to encourage people not to forget. I have always believed that there are people reading this message board who have information but are afraid to step forward. Every so often I make the same ongoing plea --to please speak up if you know something. Sometimes people will post a message on a board rather than communicate with the family, law enforcement, etc. One way some of us keep hope alive is to keep the focus on Joshua's case alive -- not by doing anything offensive -- just by asking salient questions and probing. I am hoping and praying someday someone somewhere will find the courage to help. You know who you are, too much time has passed with Joshua still missing and no answers. Help us get to the bottom of this unending heartbreak. And thank you to the person who volunteers his/her time to maintain this board. I know it is a lot of work. It truly is appreciated. |

I’ll try as calmly as possible to respond to your post… I must say, it made me a little angry… First of all, it doesn’t have to specifically mention a name. There was enough information there to give a very good indication of an individual. Second Point… Joshua’s family did NOT ask me to create this message board so that people could post speculation, accusations, and all of this conspiracy theory crap. Reality is that Joshua is missing, there is possibly a crime involved. Posting speculation about what happened will NEVER EVER make this end. What will make this end is for someone to do the responsible thing and give enough information to Law Enforcement so that they can act. This message board was created to help show Joshua and his family that people still care and are willing to actually do something other then sit behind an anonymous name and post whatever comes to their mind. I’m a volunteer and have donated a lot of time to create this web site. I don’t personally know Joshua’s parents however I do know other relatives. When they asked me to help them, it seemed the least I could do to show real tangible support. There are so many creative and useful projects that could be done to help show your support, it’s too bad that so much energy is spent on speculation, accusation and theories that don’t help. Third and final point… You are not the one that answers e-mails or other methods of communication from people who HAVE been directly hurt by posts on this message board. I HAVE! Because I seem to be the one that has to do this on occasion, my decision about what stays and goes is final. So final that I don’t have much problem disabling the message board completely if this stuff continues… Before you press the submit button on your next post, ask yourself how this message will show Joshua and his family that people care! If it doesn’t offer that kind of support, close your web browser and go find something else to do! If those 3 points are not enough to coax you into more appropriate posts, remember one fact... Your anonymous posts are not that anonymous to the person with access to the server logs (myself). Next time, take that creative energy you appear to have and hang a few Find Joshua posters around your campus. Be prepaired to stand by your not so anonymous comments! |

The original question (8/23) was "What do Bay St. Louis (Miss.), the Luxor, the Gold Coast, and Overlake Hospital Medical Center (Seattle area) have in common?" I don’t see the Overlake connection, but the other places are all associated with gambling (and possibly pornography). I found one computer on the Internet that has visited sites associated with all of these locations: See 'Usage Statistics for T.D.Bishop on www.cs.kent.ac.uk' at http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/tdb/stats/ref_200508.html. I visited the http://www.davidicke.net/newsroom/america/canada/090700d.html site posted on 8/24. It’s all very interesting, but what does any of it have to do with Josh? I talk only about facts that I know to be true, and this is speculation. Josh disappeared on the campus of St. John’s University. It stands to reason that that is where you need to focus your search. |

Anyone who's been idly standing by, hoping this nightmare would just disappear -- I hope you can find the courage to step forward.

Doubledash. Yes, the perp is arrogant and yes, after 20 years he believed he could get away with his crimes forever. But no, he won’t do ''the right thing.'' He’s not like that. And yes, correct, the clock is ticking. It’s time for innocent bystanders to stand clear and come clean if they want to avoid paying for crimes of omission. We previously cautioned ''There is not much time left to act'' and ''It is never too late and the repercussions will only get worse.'' Correction: It will soon be too late but not yet. |

That's true, BMW. I had forgotten about the obstruction of justice charges. To the suspect(s), I think you are reading this board and have been since its inception. I have a message for you -- we have a pretty good idea about what happened. Are you that arrogant that you believed you could get away with your heinous crimes forever? Do you think you're untouchable? How about immortal? Like BMW said, the clock is ticking...maybe it's time, at long last, for you to do the right thing...if you still remember what the right thing actually is |

"If the right parties had shown your dedication, this case would have been closed by now" There are two thoughts that come to mind in comtemplating why this case has been pushed aside by authorities - the first is, "there is none so blind as he who will not see;" the second is more far more disturbing -there are those who know perfectly well what happened but for whatever reason (fear of retribution -- or money perhaps) chose not to intervene. The latter is what drives me to keep asking questions until these people finally understand that those seeking truth will not stop until justice is obtained |

For insight into the mind of the kind of person responsible for Josh’s disappearance, watch ''Dateline'' NBC at 7 p.m. CT tonight. Dennis Rader, age 60, was president of his church congregation, a Cub Scout leader, and the compliance officer for his city who worked closely with local law enforcement agencies. He was hiding in plain sight for 31 years without raising any suspicion on the part of his family, his neighbors, or his community. Program information at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8917644/ |

If the right parties had shown your dedication, this case would have been closed by now. Although it's a highly sophisticated crime by an experienced offender, it's not that great a mystery. As for remaining patient, we are looking at a matter of weeks before certain information will come to light. Anyone with half a brain will be able to put two and two together. Whether this will realize justice for Joshua is not within my power. |
