I may be wrong, but at least one of the alternate Z-film viewings took place long before JFK was a spark in Stone's cerebral cortex.
Make that a 'Roger!'...you're not wrong.
Which is why I added the clarification "since 1992"...
Dawn, I agree that a lot of the things we argue about in our little echo chamber are causing us to lose sight of the bigger picture.
Which is why I politely and with a soupcon of humor attempted to make clear that "at least one of the alternate Z-film viewings" happened prior to the date you cited.
No argument. Just a simple clarification.
Like the one you've just read.
For your information, such a scenario as you suggest was the central plot element of an episode of the long-vanished and widely respected American TV comedy The John Larroquette Show.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
