I don't remember, I read a lot of stuff, but it wasn't a mainstream story, of course.

Some more light reading, the US/Canadian border> news.yahoo.com At the edge of a sprawling raspberry field where Washington state meets British Columbia, a U.S. Border Patrol agent shakes his head at tire tracks that snake between rows of berries and over the international boundary, which here is a gravel ditch so puny a person could leap it. "They're long gone," says agent Candido Villalobos, who raced to the scene after a surveillance camera spotted the vehicle — transporting contraband? Drug money? Something more sinister? Too late to know. "They beat us," Villalobos murmurs. Palestinian Gazi Ibrahim Abu Mezer, convicted in 1998 of plotting to bomb a New York subway, illegally entered the United States this way. On June 29, 1996, six days after he'd been caught crossing the border farther east, Mezer jogged through the park. A Border Patrol agent stopped him and returned him to Canada, where he had a pending immigration application. He would return to the United States months later, again crossing the Washington border. Directly across from Peace Arch Park on the Canadian side is the home of 84-year-old Dorothy Kristjanson. She recalls watching a whole family illegally crossing, heading south; another time, a burglar going north dropped backpacks on her porch and fled. "It's something that happens every day," she said one recent morning. "If I see somebody go by here with a backpack and I say, `Uh-oh, he looks cagey,' I'll phone (authorities) and say, `Keep an eye on that guy.'"
