well, personally speaking, I know there are a few things that myself and PABZI dont agree on, and probably will be in the future, but I like to think that we are open minded enough to consider the others thought and agree to disagree. But that is just me...lol
I agree, I do hope that this theory doesn't turn out to be true...of his entrance and his exit! Hodges' is too good of a character to remove or replace.
Now granted, he does have a somewhat common name, and this "name showing" on the computer, could be purely a coincidence, but I do see it Pabzi...lol!
It's hard though, to think of that incident in snuff as a "preperation of his entrance." Why I say that is, if they were going to make something of it, it would've been a little more in your face. (I had to scan the scene a couple of times before catching his name) But then again, the wirters have been known to use subtleties in the past.
You still got me thinkin' though....
