This has to be about the most interesting criticism I have received so far.  I would like to know just which of my *bad ideas* is *terrible*?  Let me give you a few to work with...

1 -- There is nothing to substantiate LHO being involved in intelligence work.  In fact, what is demonstrated is that he was a traitor...

2 -- If LHO had lived to go to trial and be found guilty by due process, I would not question the jury's decision.

3 -- There is so little damage to the limo that it is virtually impossible to connect this to what would have occurred had LHO in the SN with the old M/C with its skewed site been the cause.

4 -- Because the SS had the limo for 12 hours after the assassination prior to turning it over to the FBI for a forensic exam, there is every reason to question the validity of the *evidence* they and the FBI later found...
