I am unsure as to who is being accused of hypocrisy, but, in case Mr. Doyle has me in mind, let me say this. A couple of years ago, James Douglass gave a lecture at Cornell on "Unspeakable." I live in Ithaca, and was happy to be able to attend. It was an excellent presentation, and, after he spoke, people lined up to speak to him, as did I. I must have queued for about 20 minutes and then told him in no uncertain terms why the Marvin/Pitzer coverage is the Achilles heel of his book, and urged him to find better balance if he ever writes a second edition. He accepted my comments graciously.
I believe you have written in this thread that you believe Commander Pitzer may very well have filmed or possessed film of the pre-autopsy. I'm just making a point here and I feel your responses are not honestly addressing the main question, since you admit it yourself. What you don't answer says more than what you do.
