Tomorrow is Nov. 24th--DB Cooper 38th anniversary - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hi Everyone,
Just thought I would make mention of this. Tomorrow is November 24th, the 38th anniversary of DB Cooper's Hijacking. I also heard where tomorrow is "Cooper Day" in some town in the Pacific Northwest, not too far from where he parachuted? I wonder what Cooper Day actually entails.
I was always baffled by the Cooper story, and I can't believe it has almost been 40 years. I wonder if it will ever be solved, one way or the other. I don't think he is alive, if no trace of him has ever been found since then.
What was Dan Cooper's motive for hijacking the plane? To my knowledge, none of the passengers knew that they were in danger while they were on board?

He hijacked the plane in return for 200,000 USD as far as I remember.

Wikipedia has great information on him.
