  1. I asked for your proof that the autopsy was "falsified". You provided nothing but your opinion. Wanna try again?
  2. And, along those same lines.... Anybody will believe anything they see on the movie theater screen---if it's an Oliver Stone production. Sad, isn't it?
  3. Many people (numbering in the millions) disagree very strongly with your above assessment.
  4. The "Vocative comma" and the dreaded "Comma immediately following a sentence-opening prepositional phrase" are things that I have been advocating and fully supporting for years now. 😇 In fact, when I was proofreading the text of the book I helped Mel Ayton write a few years back, I had the darndest time convincing Mel that many additional commas were needed in our manuscript before it went to press. I succeeded in getting most of them added. For some odd reason, it seems that there is a paucity of commas being utilized in books written by many British authors (like Mr. Ayton). I've yet to figure out why this is so. ~shrug~
  5. Oh, I assure you, I didn't read any of the two-part article. (~Shuddering at the thought.~) I merely searched both parts and used the handy "Word Find" tool to search for "its" and "it's". That's all.
  6. So, the thing you say is an "obvious entry wound" in the Stare Of Death photograph was somehow completely missed (or ignored?) by all of the autopsy physicians? How can anyone truly believe such a thing?
  7. Along these same "grammar" lines.... In his latest two-part essay on Pacino & Travolta, I see that Jim DiEugenio still hasn't managed to correct his persistent habit of misspelling the word it's as its (sans the apostrophe). (See Part 2 of the article for multiple examples.) I've noticed in recent months that multiple other Education Forum members (besides just Jim D.) also have that same habit of refusing to spell that particular word correctly. Which seems very curious to me. Is Jim's longtime grammar affliction contagious?

  9. And you actually believe this? It's utterly ridiculous to think that Wesley J. Liebeler made any such statement to Sylvia Odio.
  10. More "Odio" Banter.... In 2012, I archived a pretty good "Sylvia Odio" Internet discussion, featuring Jean Davison and John McAdams: http://jfk-archives.blogspot.com/2012/03/sylvia-odio-part-2.html
  11. BTW / JFTR (Just For The Record)..... Here's a working link for the complete 1966 KCBS radio program featuring Wesley Liebeler. The link in the opening post is broken and incomplete: _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  14. Here are some comments I made while talking to some conspiracy theorists at Amazon.com in 2016 (when the Amazon forums were still alive and well). I think these remarks still apply today: ----------------------- "Tell me why the smell of Oswald's gunpowder couldn't have drifted down to street level after just a few seconds? Any reason why conspiracy theorists totally disregard that possibility altogether? Dealey Plaza is a very small place. I can easily envision Oswald's gun producing odors that would be noticeable within the entire Plaza a few seconds after the shots were fired from the sixth floor. Has such a thing ever been disproved? I think not. I think some witnesses did smell gunpowder. But a gun was being fired in the small Plaza that day. So, in my opinion, the gunpowder they smelled was from the ONE GUN that was KNOWN to have been fired that day---i.e., Oswald's Carcano from the sixth floor. I see nothing so impossible about people smelling OSWALD'S gunpowder. And [Ralph] Yarborough was certainly not ON THE GRASSY KNOLL when he smelled the gunpowder. He was in a car in the middle of Elm Street. Also -- Tom Dillard said he smelled the odor of gunpowder while he was right "at the corner" of Elm and Houston Streets during the time the assassination was occurring or very shortly after the shots were fired." -- DVP; March 2016
  15. As per usual, James DiEugenio has everything backwards. Because Gerald Posner's "Case Closed" is actually a very very good book. It's easily one of the Top 5 books ever written concerning the events of 11/22/63. Kudos go out to Mr. Posner for his book's 30th birthday here in 2023. It's a publication that has held up extremely well during these last thirty years. (The constant gripes of conspiracy theorists notwithstanding, of course.)
