Charles,
In case you are unaware of the meaning of the concept, disinformation is information that a
party knows to be false but asserts anyway in an attempt to mislead his audience. Since he
and I both BELIEVE what we are defending is TRUE, we cannot be engaged in disinformation.
I have actually published on this subject in an international, peer-reviewed journal, MINDS
AND MACHINES. I can provide the cites if you would like. Banishing Ralph from this forum
is simply begging the question by taking for granted that you are right and we are wrong.
My impression has been that forums like this one were intended to focus on the complex and
controversial aspects of subjects, in this case, the assassination of JFK. I cannot imagine how
you could possibly fulfill that mission if you are going to ban those with whom you disagree.
Indeed, given the centrality of the question under consideration to a JFK assassination forum,
I am truly incredulous that you have taken that step. Ralph is aggressive in arguing his case,
but based upon my experience in this very forum, that does not ordinarily lead to banishment.
Jim

For whom will you be fronting next? The known disinformation entity "Colby" on the EF?
Such surrogate behavior will not be tolerated.
