Subject: FWWM: MIKE and BOB (the spirits, not the students)

This posting refers to a scene from the movie, so if you haven't seen 
it you might not wish to read on...

My understanding is that MIKE is some kind of spirit and BOB is his
familiar. MIKE feeds on pain and sorrow, and BOB (who goes out and 
does the dirty work) feeds on fear and brings back subjects and their
misery for MIKE. Alot of this is implied, so correct me if I'm wrong.

My question is, why did MIKE warn Laura about her father in the traffic
scene in the movie? I thought that MIKE wasn't "purified" until after 
Laura's death. And after Laura's murder we see him retrieving "pain and
sorrow" from BOB in the Black Lodge.
