Interesting that mysterious Cooper and McCoy get compared at times...wouldn't it be something if McCoy really was Cooper all along and, all these years, we have been chasing the elusive, mysterious, whoever-he-is DB Cooper. One theory I have heard is that McCoy lost most of his money on the 11/24/71 jump, he was desperate for cash, so he went for it again, but was careless that second time around. And there is the timeline issue of where he was Thanksgiving evening and all. What if....?? What if we have been barking up the wrong tree, what if it isn't the big mystery we have made it out to be? No problem, I have had a good time, got on TV, met some great people..it's all good. MeyerLouie
