I don't know for sure and this is the wildest conspiracy theory but consider the facts:

Sometime prior to 20 March 2004 the father signs the ANSWER petition and affixes the company name "Prometheus...etc." (In Greek Mythology, Prometheus was the bringer of Fire to mankind).

On 24 March 2004 the son is traveling in the regionwithout employment, and gave his name and company name to the checkpoint guard.

At this point he was detained. Perhaps it is more than possible that the appearance of his company's name on the petition of a known subversive organization, coupled with his seemingly unneccessary presence in the region led to his detention.

In other words, maybe Michael Berg needs to rethink his own actions.

Please don't misunderstand. I feel terrible for this family and cannot fathom the depths of their grief. Yet I also think there are things you just should think about before you do.

The son worked for the father?? I thought the dad was a teacher. Your scenario could be right on, tho.
