1. The eye insigna--The eye could mean that people are watching and keeping an eye out for possible danger, and are ready to help.
2. OFD--Olaf Forming Deleteriousness?
3. The world is quiet here--the world is quiet, no screaming, no sirens, etc.
4. Firefighting--Firefighting is just one of the things VFD do to make the world a better place, if only a fraction of a fraction of a fraction better.
5. Detective work--Solving crimes, putting criminals to justice.
6. "Thank you for volunteering,"--TSS--I imagined this reffering to the actual VFD, not just Quigley helping Violet climb up the waterfall. It was after the line "...that someone wants to care...and help you." This may not be for VFD, but I looked at it that way, and the VFD is something that cares and helps you. (more coming soon) Now, I know Volunteer Fire Department can fit all that plus more, but:
Quigley said it--Quigley has been around the block, yes, but it's book 10, there's 3 more books left, and he said he THINKS that's what it is. If the biggest mystery is revealed in the 10th book then why bother reading to the Exciting End?
It's so obvious. My [nonexistant imagenary] 5-year old cousin [whom I made up for the instance] figured it out. What sort of mystery is so obvious, and then "confirmed" 3 books before then end?

5. Detective work--Solving crimes, putting criminals to justice. Exactly! Volunteer Fire Detectives. As much as Handler enjoys using obnoxiously large words I refuse to concur with the ideaology that VFD is an acronym for Volunteer Fighters of Deletriousness.

Either way, I don't think it's Detective for the D... in TUA, Jacque writes to Jerome Squalor and says "I'm not really a detective..." And, again, I don't think it'll be Fire Department, because it's too obvious.

well as I've said before the name could be a misnomer.

But it's too OBVIOUS! I mean, it absolutely, positively can NOT be it if it's revealed before the series end! RED HERRING!

I think FoxTrot is a comic strip, but I could be completely wrong. For all your name changes, may I just refer to you as J, as it is simpler?

I'll go with Celinra, I shall refer to you as J. So does anyone here know what foxtrot is? And why people suspect that J is a fan?
