mlo, I am going to respectfully disagree with you on John McAdams website. He is the strongest advocate of the LN theory alive today, besides Posner. He is a professor of political science at Marquette University and teaches a course in the assassination.

Recently he and some of his students were on the Today show, around the time of the anniversary of the assassination. Even the majority of his students believe in a conspiracy and they weren't alive at the time of the assassination. (OOpps, their grade point averages! :-)} His newsgroup is "moderated." If he doesn't like what you submit about the assassination, he won't post it.

Also one has to be wary of his "documentation" He tries to pass off a page out of "Who's Who" to substantiate the birthplace of Clay Shaw, instead of using a birth certificate or baptismal certificate. "Who's Who" *isn't* an official document.

If I can find info online about D.B. Thomas' recent report to JFK Lancer on the acoustics, I will attempt to engage you on that subject matter. Otherwise, I won't be able to. It's too technical for me. He did submit his work for peer review, whereas Ken Rahn and his work on the NAA will NOT. Why not? What's he afraid of?

He is an LN advocate, as you put it. That shouldn't disqualify the information he presents any more than Groden should be disqualified simply because he believes in a conspiracy. McAdams does a great job of giving the other side and of explaining a lot of the issues raised by various conspiracy sources. I think that is incredibly valuable in a search for the truth.

The newsgroup is moderated. The moderation tries to keep it civil and keeps out junk. Posts are not deleted for their opinions. There are several moderators and some of them are conspiracy theorists. Both sides are represented there.

I have a page with links to the available acoustics resources, including Thomas' latest presentation to Lancer. It is at www.geocities.com/jfkdocs
The presentation is at the bottom.
