Missing Person!

I filed two missing person reports today in Canada at the Rock Island Police station and again in the US at the Derby Line Police Station. UnhappyT I think has been picked up at the border trying to "test" the new border security. Still no word. I brought his car back down from the campground. I have contacted our embassy in Canada. Still no word of his where abouts.

Still no sign?

Well I guess I am writing for all of you who know the Unhappy Traveller. Since attempting to cross the border in the begining of July, he has been missing. I called the border patrol and they said that all inquiries about people attempting to cross into the country should be made to Homeland Security.
I called the office of Homeland Security and they said that any persons found attempting to cross into the country illegally were breaking the law and would be dealt with accordingly. I asked about our friend and they said "We can not acknowledge nor disavow the knowledge of persons illegally entering the country over the US canadian border."
I naturally pressed them because UnhappyT was only fooling around crossing the border this way and had his passport and IDs. I got no where with the person on the line refusing to acknowledge one way or the other is UnhappyT had been picked up. I asked the person to identify themselves that I wanted to file a complaint with his supervisor and he said he could not do that! What? I asked for his supervisors name so I could file a complaint, and he said he could not tell me. After an hour of arguing I gave up on this front.
UnhappyT We are all thinking of you and hope the best for you.
