I was gonna put a disclaimer in the OP, but I figured I'd let things ride out and see how many conspiracy theorists get nervous.

You post these queries and never seem to follow up with anything remotely interesting or related. So for one to wonder why you want to know the middle schools, places of birth, home towns, high schools, street names we lived on etc. etc.. well, it doesn't require being a "conspiracy theorist".

Jonas Salk Middle School, Old Bridge. 13.7 miles.
