This is a story that has escaped notice of many people interested in the history of the Old West. Ingalls is located just ten miles east of Stillwater Oklahoma, the city in which Oklahoma State University (founded in 1890) has made its home. On September 1, 1893, United States Deputy Marshal John Hixon commanded a band of thirteen US Marshals, and they rode into Ingalls, Oklahoma in an attempt to capture or kill eleven members of "the Wild Bunch," also known as the Doolin-Dalton Gang. The Doolin-Dalton Gang, led by Bill Doolin and Bill Dalton, had wreaked havoc on trains and banks in the Oklahoma Territory in the early 1890s and thus became a major menace to law and order in the region. The US Marshals confronted the gang members in and around a local saloon in one of the bloodiest firefights in the history of the US Marshal Service. The Battle of Ingalls ended in the deaths of three Marshals, injuries to two gang members, and the capture of one outlaw. It has become a famous moment in Oklahoma history and in the history of the US Marshal Service.

Mystery surrounds divers' death."It's a complete mystery to me." Those are the words of Dr. George Hiakawa, Chief Medical Examiner for the Kauai Coroner's Office when asked about how a popular shell diver, Tiki Kalani, had died. "Whomever or whatever killed him, left only his skeleton. All the soft tissues, brain, eyes, intestines, muscles, tendons - everything was gone. I don't know of any marine organism that could do that. It must have been some kind of monster."Tiki Kalani was an avid shell diver. Many of his rare shells were used in island jewelry. His brother, Danny, found his remains off the west coast of Ni'ihau. "I was shocked when I found his skull and arms sticking out of the sand," recalled Danny. "Hawaiian Fish and Game divers dug his bones out of the bottom. It was a gruesome sight. I couldn't stop crying. When asked about his forensic investigation, Dr. Hiakawa said, "I gave a preserved sample of bone fragments to Professor Willow Parker. She's a marine biologist with an extensive background in DNA analysis. You should talk to her.

More recently, the discovery of thousands of methane craters, both on land and underwater, is clear evidence that mother nature can, and will, do it again. Driven by avarice, fossil fuel barons risk everything to claim their share of this hidden treasure. They know drilling holes into our planet is a perilous gamble and that mother nature is the sovereign guardian. If you respect her domain, she may give up some of her bounty. But if you transgress... there are a thousand ways to die. BLOWOUT tells the horrifying tales of three of them.
