Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

MKS posted a finishing time already on the Fetch event page (finished 50 mins before the blasts) - still a few folks to hear from though.

Yeah, MKS has also posted on race comment to say he's back in hotel. TRO Saracen and his OH have posted they are OK. Still 10 other fetchie names that it would be great to hear from.

Glad to see that the Fetch runners are OK. I was in my hotel having a shower when the bombs exploded. Just arrived home now, and quite happy to be here.

With that sort of terrorism on the sort of scale we all witnessed, the jurors had little option but to agree to capital punishment. I can't understand why they had to answer questions on whether the defendant was remorseful, or if he kind and considerate in school.

Which state was he tried in? Massachusetts? I didn't think they had the death penalty. Thought it was only southern states. Capital punishment is just wrong, no matter how hideous the crime. And I completely agree, it was a hideous crime - cowardly, indiscriminate, horrific, all those things. :-(
