Thank you, Dawn, for the compliment. I am hardly an "expert" on JFK, more like a student, still questioning everything and trying to examine assumptions. It would be my great honor to someday contribute something of value to the research community.

And we're very glad you're here Drew. I remember back over twenty years ago now when I still did criminal defense in Travis county we would sometimes discuss the JFK assassination. I had no clue then just how much of an expert you were- or would become.
How time flies. You and (now judge) Mike Coffey were the two witnesses on our marriage license. 11/2 will be twenty years for Erick and me. 
You really should do facebook. (I will never have a twitter a/c).

That's so sweet Dawn. Precious people and moments in your life.
Glad to have Drew here too.

I'll second that, too, Drew. It's very important to have members who present other perspectives. That, after all, is the whole purpose of a discussion forum, and I've enjoyed our debate thus far.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge. Carl Jung - Aion (1951).

A large cheque would achieve that in a thrice, Drew. I have several Panamanian, er, "research" centers more than happy to do the necessary in return for a statue of your choice.

Actually, I have several Panamanian centres too. "Research" is my speciality, whereas for Tooth, who is filthy rich anyway, it is merely his 24/7 hobby.
And while I always prefer hard-earned folding money, in the outstanding interests of Pamela Stephenson, I'll be very happy to accept research donations via American Express:

Yes, standing out from the crowd is awfully important.

Well, there's JFK here - he was "shot in the head"; I get "student" for some reason; 'thrice' is close to "three"; "Panama"'s in there too; "research" gets it, as in human "lab rat" - & it's 'ruh-search', nvr 'ree-search', 'course; maybe one or two "American Express"-type refs; & as for "generous endowment", well my mum died yesterday & it's referenceing city & a very high pitch tone in my head & some dream choreographies last night & a few sharp neuralgics at the Registry Office.
Speaking of Not the Nine O'clock News; in 2012, it took the shitehounds approximately 10days/2weeks to get back to me on "Wild? - I was absolutely livid".

Albert Camus - "The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion".

Albert Camus - "Nothing is more despicable than respect based on fear."

Ditto. Condolences.
