The Mad Trapper!

This week's speaker was Dr. Lynne Bell and she brought "CSI" to our meeting. She identifies human remains and recently worked on a Discovery Channel special on "The Mad Trapper" who is the "man" in the saying "the Mounties always get their man!". He was killed in Fort MacPherson on Feb. 17th, 1932 and he still can't be identified - except that he was not Canadian. This was discovered because we all store information from our environment, including pollutants, in our teeth and fingernails. Dr. Bell also worked on the remains of the Mary Rose warship that sank in calm waters in 1545!
