Ok, way back in #6. The Capture Visser Three ordered someone to "kill this fool" for something very trivial. This boggles my mind to no end, because he was murdered by being shot, leaving a body. What are they going to DO with it? The way the book makes it sound, they could just have vaporized him, but with a dead body they've got to hide it. And even if they don't (i.e. feeding it to the Taxxons), what will happen to his friends, family, coworkers, etc, who notice he went missing and the LAST PLACE he was seen was at a Sharing meeting? That will draw all sorts of unwanted attention to The Sharing, and even if they infest his entire family and the cops, that attention is STILL going to be there, further diminishing The Sharing's reputation. Maybe THAT'S why The Sharing never worked so well; it had a reputation for too many people going missing (aka getting chopped in half/decapitated/eviscerated/de-limbed/shot by Visser Three).
