People around here tend to stay out pretty late on warm summer evenings. So "late at night" is a loaded term and might not apply to everybody.Furthermore, "one of the nine scattered rural homes..." - c'mon, we're talking out in the "after livestock-tending chores were done."-country here. Who would suspect any foul play in this area, on a warm summer evening?Paranoid much? If so, that's still not the fault of the girls.If this had been in the winter or in a more populated area, I could sympathize with Crotian and GlassJaw, but this was in the rural Colorado, on a summer eve... seriously, if you think that's dangerous, then obviously you're scared of anything. I wonder if she would have sued if someone's car had broken down and they were trying to borrow a phone. Or if it had been a policeofficer.Furthermore, her panic attack apparently wasn't so bad that she couldn't wait until the next day to go to the emergency room...</blockquote>
