...their environment. The more the parents scream, the more the kids want the candy." Parents are not too keen on the promotional campaign either. Appearing at radio stations around the country to hand out free samples to fans is the Boogerman: an actor costumed as a 6-ft.-tall, green, slimy . . . Oh, yech...

The hospital pathologist who performed the autopsy judged the slim, athletically built victim to be in her 20s and said she had been dead three weeks. A few days later, medical examiner Michael Baden autopsied the body and came to a startlingly different conclusion.

They concentrate for hours, zenlike, watching thunderheads build and billow above, gazing at streams running over moss-covered rocks, searching for the sight of a trout, that near perfect fish, as it fins and darts, drifts and feeds...
