Knew that the reveal of uranium from gold mines in South Africa would lead to something.
March 1957. Popular Mechanics releases an article on how to build "The Prospector's Partner", a combination geiger counter and portable radio. (pic 1)
This is part of a generalized madness about finding uranium everywhere, for the government. A uranium rush, with geiger counters being used on private planes to scan areas.
What was the "Big Plan" mentioned in this ad? Was it the hijack?
(pic 2)
Explosion in sales of devices such as "The Wedgie", by a mysterious, secret, perhaps CIA-backed company called Scintillonics, in Fort Collins, Colorado, perhaps employing Duane's brother. (pic 3)
Dan Cooper invents the "Cutie Pie" detector but is fired using on local females. (pic 4)
He leaves and builds the "Nucliometer", also known as the Cooper Detector (pic 5)
per http://www.orau.org/PTP/collection/surveymeters/Detectrondg299.htm the device uses 3 types of batteries
one 67.5 volt "B" (Eveready No.467), three 30 volt "B" (Eveready No. 413), three 1.5 volt "A" (standard D cells)
pics 6 and 7 are of Eveready No. 467 and No. 413. I have also included No. 416 which is 67.5 Volts also.
Did Cooper have a Eveready No. 413 in his briefcase? Is that why Tina couldn't identify it?
Significantly, this ties together the questions of why 377, Sluggo_monster, Orange1 and Duane.
Did Cooper jump with a nuclear bomb? If not, why did Duane have the Soldier of Fortune magazine portraying that? Or only with gold? Or only with the money. Interestingly, in a future hijack, gold bars actually were delivered to the hijacker on the plane. Why?
Did Cooper used a combination geiger counter/radio to communicate with accomplices on the ground?
No animals were harmed in the creation of this post.
=====================QuoteNobody from Jo's past was here to speak to her statements
directly. Jo has always said: "Remember Duane's famous words - Hide it in plain site."

========================
QuoteHide it in plain site. I found one last thing - got to thinking about where I found that old book and the picture inside of it. There was one more item - in plain site all of this time. Another book. In this book where connections to WA, ID, OR, B.C. and CA. The other item he had place on my shelf in 1990...I had used this book, but never paid any attention to something very specific about the book. I was in the middle of a phone conversation - when the thought occured to me. I was amazed at what had been in front of me all of these yrs." (Weber: Feb 1 2009)


QuoteIf you recall Jo spent weeks here over a photo from Salt Lake City and a Mormon connection she said was important to the case of Duane and DB Cooper.

=======================
As for the McCoy Book:
![[:/] [:/]](/uploads/emoticons/dry.png)


Mrs McCoy was granted an injunction to prohibit the sale of movie rights to the book, conditional upon the movie including references to four specific allegations that she contested in the book. And
Mrs. McCoy accepted a settlement for her grief
in 1994. Cooper never left a Bigham Young medalion with MCCoy's initials on it, on the plane
Jo seems to be using the McCoy book as her standard reference on the Cooper matter and trying to link Duane using what the McCoy book says.Quote.


========================
QuoteRemember that there was not only the books but a re-assurgence of articles on Cooper in the early 80's. He also had taken a job that required consistent contact with individuals on a daily and weekly basis."
=========================

You see that avatar and you go ballistice every time.

Jo also claims to have exclusive evidence in the Cooper case, as follows: "I am not certain but I believe I am the only one who has stated that Cooper had an Altimeter Watch - simply because Duane told me he used to have one . This was told to me in the yrs prior to my finding the ticket and stub. This was told to me in Virginia Beach, Virginia...Strange I remember where we were at the time - and what we were doing also. This does not indicate that Cooper had such a watch, but Duane did. "QuoteAnd, "MsCooper wrote on Jun 14, 2006: "The picture with the mustach and white hair was taken in Virginia Beach around 1987 -- this was how he appeared after NORJAX was put on the racks in 1986 --- Why did he suddenly grow facial hair in 1986- 87."
Jo says it is strange she remembers where they were at the time, in Virginia Beach. But, of course this is where McCoy was killed, where the Cooper matter was being discussed at large, and where the Webers first got interested in DB Cooper. So Jo would remember where something so important in her life began, something she is still working on todayQuote
Yes he did tell me that - but we were NOT discussing Cooper. We were at a display sale in one of the hotels.
=========================
" With all that has happened in the last 24 hrs. - I have not one iota of doubt that Duane was Cooper....a couple of these things cannot be discussed in a forum but investigated by the FBI. Hopefully Carr will react on the information I gave him....if he doesn't SHAME on HIM. The answer to the crime has been staring the FBI in the face for 36 yrs...but who would have thought something that appeared so mundane could actually be a red flag - and the pivotal point for Cooper's decision to hijack the plane in addition to his health and personal problems at that time. I now think I can rest - I have done all I can do and I have all the proof I need. I found that needle in the haystack thanks to this forum. LOVE to all - Ms. Cooper Rest in Peace Mouse - You made your statement with what you thought would be your last few moments on earth, but you survived and you got it right and you know THAT BOY MADE GOOD! (This post was edited by skyjack71 on Jan 17, 2008, 8:29 PM)"""""Quote
It was not important to me - I was working but not on Cooper. THese are just things he pointed out - the house McCoy got killed in but I didn't know McCoy was a highjacker at that time. He just drove by the place and pointed it out - he never gave me any details and I didn't ask. McCoy was killed there before we ever moved to Virginia - so there WAS NOTHING to read in the papers.
=========================
The only thing I am working on from our time in Virgina is some pics he showed me of some men and 3 of these men where smokjumper in the 40's.and 50's. You take everything and twist it. Duane and I were not working on anything to gether - and I was not interested in Cooper - I did not even know the things he showed me briefly were ever related to Cooper. I did not know what Norjak was about. He never let me read the book.
Believe me that is a good statement - because to this day CARR NEVER investigated what I gave me - not at all. But I have people on it myself. It is slow going because I am not in California doing it and the other person might not understand what they are lookiing for. Not one things I gave CArr has been investigated.... but with what is going on I suggest he get busy.
QuoteWhat is clear from georger's long post above , is that if Jo truly had no idea who Cooper was until Duane said what he supposedly said on his deathbed, then she must have been extremely cocooned. (Yes I know she has said things that seem to contradict her statement in this before as well.) It's amazing that she seems so aware of other major incidents and somehow missed one that seems to have made newspapers and TV for ages afterwards.
I made a long post below and If you will be so kind as to note that Georger only does these things when I use the Salt Lake Photo. That photo drives him balistic.
I have worked hard all of my life and we did not have the internet...so I did not pay much attenction to anything other than the front page if I even saw that. I read books and I worked - that was it. I still had to cook and keep house and laundry. I was a working partner and a housewife.
I knew very little about Cooper and what I did know didn't hang with me at time as I had no reason to catelogue the memory.
Newspapers and TVs - back in thos day when everyone else was watching TV - I was making appoints on the phone or out on appointment....I hardly ever watched TV. SORRY to disalusion you...

QuoteSnowmman clearly engages in 'petty' psychological warfare here testing how far he/she can manipulate people, but for what end, if any?
Hey, the economy is in shambles and there is no more profitable business than a cult. Snowmman knows a good thing when he sees it, just like L Ron Hubbard, Sun Myung Moon, Werner Erhard, etc. Plus, the cult leaders get the pick of the litter for "personal assistants."
When he emerges alive from the killer Washougal, after a near crucifixion and a crown of blackberry thorns, he will be hailed as a messiah. The Vatican will denounce him as a false prophet but it wont slow him down one bit. The Snowbball is on a roll.

Jo,
Another tease. Who do you think is in the photo? Why do you think it elicits a strong response from G? Stop dealing in innuendo and just tell us what you contend.
The photo just looks like a guy in a band or choir uniform to me. Without further info, I fail to see any Cooper connection. Remember when you were postulating that the coat chevrons had military/govt/intelligence significance? That seemed very illogical to me.
Anything and everything you post about ________ being Cooper riles up G. Hard for me to tell that the SLC photo is an especially unique trigger point. That "ballistic" claim is also a bit illogical don't you think? IF the photo were especially significant, an FBI/CIA guy as smart as G would never rise to the bait. Correct?
As always, I welcome your posts. Free speech 24/7/365 here. Wild theories welcomed. Maybe there never was a hijack after all.

I got a call from WA. that there are people down on the river doing some kind of tests. Float Tests and other things and it is all in relation to Cooper. It was about this time of the yr that the money showed up at Tena's bar.
The woman who contacted me is in Seattle so I don't know what is really going on. But Georger did all those posts and made me spend 3 yrs defending myself. Don't attack me and I am in there like I did the other night to make a quick post and then back out.

Jo,
Tell me why Carr wouldn't want to solve this case. Whoever solves it will go down in history as one of the best detectives of the century. Carr is an FBI agent. This is the ONLY skyjack that the FBI hasn't solved. The career enhancement would be huge. Use logic Jo. My logic tells me that Carr would reject nothing that he thought might ID Cooper. If he fails to do what you ask, it is because he sees no connection to Cooper, not because he is part of a coverup conspiracy.
Tell me why the FBI would cover up who Cooper really was if they knew. The case is old, stale, nearly irrelevant to 21st century foreign terrorism. Why would they cover up anything? The FBI does go after their own if corruption is found. If the 1971 FBI were complicit in Norjack I actually think the 2009 FBI would not cover it up. Call me naive.

You call my posts an attack Jo? How about just responding to my polite logical questions? I am free to attack your logic and you are free to attack mine. That is not a personal attack or insult.
Your photo teases serve no useful purpose. Tell us your contentions and let's see where it goes.
You irritate a lot of people on this forum: Georger, Jerry, Shelly and even Sluggo who has treated you very respectfully. I don't get riled by you, but I can see why others might.
You could take some steps to improve things and one of them would be to stop teasing, hiding, hinting etc. Just state your alleged facts or conclusions plainly.
Is that an attack? I sure don't think it is.

Jo and Duane lived at Virgina Beach. McCoy was shot
and killed at Virgina Beach. McCoy hijacked a 727 and
parachuted just as Cooper did.
It is impossible Jo and Duane could have lived at
Virginia Beach and not known about the McCoy
and Cooper story at Virgina Beach - it was public knowledge nationally and in local conversation, at Virgina Beach.
By Jo's own words she and Duane were an active part
of the community. Jo is the one who brought up
Virgina Beach here, while also "hiding in plain" sight
the rest of the story.
Georger said:
"Duane's famous words - Hide it in plain site."
I tried.
Well, I get to go now
Duane, Duane, Duane, Duane, Duane, Duane, Duane, Duane.
Duane.
