Interesting that in March 1964 Michael Paine, apparently snapping off an annoyed response to questioning re the wiretapped conversation between himself and Ruth on Nov. 22, 1963, says,
"MR LIEBELER. Did you make any remark to the effect that you knew who was responsible?
MR PAINE. And I don't know who the assassin is or was; no, so I did not."
Note the use of the present and then past tense, at a time when apparently everyone in America knew who the assassin was.
Wonder why Paine didn't respond to the "out" that Liebeler twice offers him, namely, the wrong day of the phone call, when he could "truthfully" have merely denied making the call on November 23.
Also Carter mentions this but doesn't say how weird it is, that Paine is speaking to SMU students about "Oswald and Cuba" in April or May 1963, long before Oswald himself began to involve himself.
