Thank you, Jim. Believe it or not, Doyle has finally come around to admiting that there is some "object" associated with the wild hair of the African-American woman in the Altgens photo. For a long time, he denied it completely.
But now he admits that there is "something" there besides her hair, and that it may be a "hat" or an "arm" of another person. I don't think he meant that the African-American woman herself was wearing a hat. I'm sure he was referring to someone else. But, I pointed out to him that you can't claim such a minor feature of another person because you have to account for the whole person. You can't just assume that the rest of the person got lost in the picture somewhere. You just can't make that kind of assumption.
So, I think that our assumption- and I want to point out that it started with you because I didn't arrive at it until I read your article in Veterans Today-that there is a whole, intact figure there, a man, where the "white blotch" in the vicinity of the right armpit of Black Hole Man is his obfuscated face, and the "black blotch" below it which merges with the hair of the African-American woman is his obfuscated torso. And his shirt was deliberately blackened precisely to cover up the distinctive pattern of his shirt. And that man, whom I shall call from this moment forth "Obfuscated Man" is most likely the real Lovelady.
Doyle actually had the nerve to suggest that the white blotch is a "shirt or jacket thrown over the shoulder of Black Hole Man." Now do you see the kind of lunacy I have been dealing with? It is obviously not that. We have all had jackets and shirts thrown over our shoulders, and we know what they look like. And what about the outline of a man's head that you can see there? You, Jim, even described the guy's hairline. Doyle made no mention of it, like he didn't see it. There is something underneath the white blotch, Doyle, and you don't need x-ray vision like Superman to see it.
I am posting the picture again just so that all honest viewers can see for themselves. Look at the white blotch, and then look around it. Look particularly at the top of the white blotch because the whiteness tapers off and more of the head is exposed. That ain't no jacket, Doyle.
