Jinx, know exactly how you feel. I was 12 when The Hillside Strangler was dumping bodies in my town of La Crescenta. My Girl Scout Leader and all of our Mom's forbid us to NEVER go anywhere by ourselves, to the point of brainwashing and fear. All of the basic security measures were constantly being told. These are of course things that we should have been told. But it was scary. I'm 60 years old now and I still have an "overly cautious" attitude.
