One of my readers asked me to boost the signal on a friend of hers who’s gone missing. She says: A friend of a friend of mine, Amy Ahonen, disappeared on 7/8 from the highway west of Golden, CO. Her wallet, keys, and cell phone were all still in her car. The official search for her was called off after a day and a half. Recent information suggests she may have been abducted, and could be anywhere. Now family and friends are trying to harness the immense power of the…
