Magic Melon Theory

Penn and Teller are experts at fooling people, but they do it for fun (and money, of course). They conducted an experiment where they shot into a melon about the same size and weight of a human head and they found that when the bullet enters the melon it is too small to push the melon forward. As it exits, however, the expelled material is sufficient in mass to propel the melon backwards, towards the shooter, rather than away.

If anyone is going to uncover conspiracy don't count on scientists. They wouldn't know when they're being lied to. Consult a magician, or a thief, or any nefarious characters you can find. They know about gullibility and how to play on it. If you believe every witness is telling the truth as they know it, then you're in for disappointment. What ya gotta do is have someone ask what's in it for the witness? Where are the holes in their story? How would I perpetrate what they're trying to put forth? What other explanations are not only valid, but more likely?

Good luck in your search for the truth, but bear in mind that real witnesses are dying off, evidence has been tampered with to such an extreme that we may never know what really happened. And you're going up against experts in cover-up, obfuscation and misdirection. Good Luck.

Broken Links

When you click on JFK Bibliography it tells you that there is no such URL.

Thanks for telling us. We screwed up. It should be fixed now.

This is as good a time as any to send out a call for additions to this "bibliography," which is in desparate need of updating. There have been a spate of books relesed recently and almost none have been added to this list. Any reader who notes a title that is missing (Oswald Talked, for example) is welcome to submit a capsule review for possible inclusion.

Hard Copy

I have visited your web site and was unable to discern if you are a print magazine or an e-zine. Please clarify. Thank you so much.

The electronic version of Fair Play is the only one there is. From time to time, we muse about a print version, but it isn't likely to happen, for a variety of reasons.

Hard Copy II

Hello:

Just read all 10 back issues of Fair Play.

How do I get a personal subscription sent to my house?

Thanks for all your wonderful work.

Thanks for you positive comments. We hate to flog a dead horse, but since we get a surprising number of email from people who wonder if there is a hard copy of Fair Play, we decided to run your letter, just to emphasize the point. There isn't. As indicated we sometimes wish there were, but it probably won't happen.
