[…] FBI files of historical, social or journalistic interest, compiled by Michael J. Ravnitzky from FOIA requests.

At this stage you either go, ‘Wow!’, and begin speculating about a hitherto undetected occult dimension to the Kennedy assassination, as the author does, or ‘So what?’ as I did.

[…] from most branches of Beatties. This raises the prospect of a kind of ‘virtual history’ emerging, celebrated, retrospectively, by plastic kits. What next……a scale model of the Kennedy assassination (with a lone gunman)? The pioneering work in this field was Green’s War Planes of the Second World War, Vols 1-6 (MacDonald and Co, 1960/62) […]
[…] are some obvious similarities; but there are obvious differences, too. For one thing, if this was a fraud, it is infinitely bigger than the killing of JFK.
