Missing

I haven't been reading my gadget-nerd sites because I was busy being a politico-nerd. On November 30 CNET Editor James Kim and his family went missing:

As we understand it, last weekend James, his wife Kati (above right), and his very young girls Penelope (left) and Sabine (baby), drove from their home in the SF Bay Area to Seattle. They were expected back some time Sunday, but were last seen by a hotel clerk at 5:45 PM on Saturday in or between Gold Beach or Portland, Oregon. We sincerely do hope they are all safe, and our hearts go out to the Kim family.

James' wife and kids have been found. They were lost in the wilderness in southwest Oregon while taking a scenic route and stayed warm running their car periodically. James went looking for help and did not return to the car as planned. Searchers have found James' tracks which inexplicably lead into a ravine. They have found heat signatures and believe they are close.
