Concerning the study to be done to collect data on where the DMK ferrets went... There has been some talk about the woman.. Lori ...who took the DMK ferts. It is believed by several that she is writing a book on the removal of the DMK ferrets. It would be important for her to be able to show where the ferrets went as part of that book, if indeed she is writing one. Do you have any knowledge of a book being written by Lori, or is this in its totality a study to be done as a school requirement that will not be used in any way by Lori? Will anyone be allowed to publish your findings in a book or article? Is a web site up now, or were you thinking of creating one later concerning the DMK ferts? How did you come to chose this particular situation? There are MANY kind people here with huge hearts. Some would be really hurt if the information gleened was actually going to be used for a book Lori is writing if she alone were to make money from it .And others would feel duped if this particular bit of information was gathered in subterfuge.. (Others would be truly delighted, mind you.) But ALL are due the honest to goodness truth. Thank you kindly and sincerely for your forthcoming answers. If all is to be done solely for your study as stated, I certainly wish you luck. [Posted in FML 5850]
