Michael Satter

I believe you may have included sources in this article that relate to a different police officer named Michael Satter. Note that the two additional sources you provided both relate to Officer Michael Satter being a member of the Overland Park, Kansas police department in the year 2000 (when he observed the forged license plate), when the Michael Satter who is the subject of the article was apparently still enrolled in community college or university in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. These are probably different people, because I doubt he would have been a 20- or 21-year-old college student in Minnesota and a police officer in Kansas simultaneously. Also, there are still no sources included about the study he is supposed to have participated in during 2006. The source that is supposed to be about that actually links to an unrelated article. --Metropolitan90 20:43, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
