John Judge was the first person I know to use the layers of an onion as an example of the layers of cover stories that were applied to the assassination of President Kennedy, and it was Judge who has been quoting E. Martin Schotz's idea of the government allowing us to "believe anything and know nothing," at least since Schotz made his COPA presentation in Dallas many years ago.
Bill, the "onion" metaphor predates John Judge -- unless John, whose work I admire, was appearing in print during the late '60s. I'll try to determine where and when I first read the comparison, but I'm absolutely certain that it happened when I was in my teens.
As for "Schotz's idea," please know that both George Michael Evica and I independently came to the same conclusion long before we heard of Schotz -- or, for that matter, each other.
