No probs at all Bob. Really? If you don't mind me asking what sort of stuff was blocked? I didn't think they blocked anything.

Thanks Greg. As you say, I'm pretty sure they are under the control of the 6th Floor Museum. But wouldn't it work with copies? I mean given what Gerda Dunckel was able to do with the copies she had I would think with whatever state of the art technology is out there that we would get something even better than that. Personally I thought Gerda's stuff was not that far off giving us an identifiable face. Or are you referring to the copyright issue?

Thanks Bob. Not as civilised as JFKFacts I take it?

Hi Carmine I'm trying to cut and paste some info on here but it's not working. Is there some trick to it or do I have to type it from scratch? Thanks for any tips.

Hi Greg I think there are a lot of us who find Sean Murphy's research and the Weigman and Darnell film compelling evidence of Oswald being on the steps. Is it worth going the next step further and crowdfunding the development of the films to a higher resolution? That way a large number of people who are specifically interested in this issue could contribute from all around the world. And it would be in the hands of the research community. Thanks for your views.

Hi Bob - nice to see you on here.

Hi Carmine Sorry, do you mean I should post the HSCA query to Lovelady link? I don't believe that there were any other unidentified people on the TSBD steps that day. I also think that Oswald's knowledge of Bill Shelley's, Junior Jarman's and Harold Norman's whereabouts at, or close to, the time of the shooting demonstrates that the only place he could have seen them all was from the TSBD steps. I'll post some detail on this when I have a moment.

Apologies if I'm keeping you up Carmine - please feel free to respond another day. Have you seen Billy Lovelady's HSCA testimony though? It's included in the thread I believe. I'll find the link if I need to but I'm assuming you know what I'm referring to. The question is framed in such a way that the HSCA implies that they know this person in the corner was filmed on Weigman and is not Lovelady and want Lovelady to confirm that. If they were able to identify 'umbrella man' after all those years why not Prayerman? (which is not to say I believe the identification of umbrella man). I thought the identification of all those on the TSBD steps was quite comprehensive by the WC (and in the various testimonies of who was standing next to whom) except for Prayerman. Is there anyone else on the steps who remains unidentified that you know of?

Hi Carmine That's it? I don't usually scare them off as fast as this. Anyway if you have the time and inclination at a later date I would like to hear who you think this could be and why he hasn't been identified. Even though it seems that the HSCA was aware of an unidentified man on the Weigman/Darnell film. Cheers.

Hi Carmine Of course, I agree we are all entitled to our opinions. And I think we are all searching for evidence-based information which is why I personally find the Prayerman thread so compelling because not only do we have the photographic evidence but the detailed research done by Sean Murphy to eliminate all other possible TSBD employees. I'm sorry I don't really know if you're a WC defender or not as I'm new on here. But I was making a general comment that I haven't seen anyone come up with a plausible explanation of who it could be (other than Oswald) and why this man wasn't identified by the WC or the HSCA. Especially as it seems that the HSCA was aware of this person appearing on Weigman/Darnell and mentioned it in Billy Lovelady's questioning. Thanks for your views.

Hi Carmine I think this Prayerman research by Sean Murphy is probably the most significant information to surface since 22 November 1963. I haven't seen any WC defenders really come up with an explanation as to who this figure might be or why he remained unidentified by the WC and the HSCA. Would appreciate your views on who is it and why he hasn't been identified by the formal investigations, if you have the time.
