In Cooperland, there are many devout sleuths. On the hunt for new clues and suspects these gumshoes have lightened the burden of solving this great unsolved mystery with levity, self-styled panache and great humor.

Bruce Smith is one of those gumshoes. Last night, this intrepid reporter from the Mountain News in Washington State sent around an e-mail informing of a new discovery he made.

“I was soon to learn that my heart had experienced a 95% blockage in the rear circumflex coronary artery,” he writes in this must-read account.

Good lord. Good news: he’s recovering and on the mend. Get better Bruce, we need you out there looking for Danny Boy.
