Robert told Blevins: Robert: I might need a few tissues myself, but until that time come I won't know if they will be tears of joy or sadness....maybe relief or anger...or if I will even be alive when the real Cooper is identified. At least I have never told any lies nor have I probagated a suspect - that I felt was not Cooper nor have I made or attempted to make any finanicial gain with my story about Cooper. OH, I thought about it and I entertained it, but the truth was MORE important to me. When I say entertained it - I mean when the story first broke there were all sorts of offers, but I just didn't feel I had enough to go forward and that is exactly what I told the people who wanted me to sign contracts and why I refused all financial assistance. Yes, I have received maps, CD's, phone calls of comfort and some that just listen because they know I will go nuts if I can't talk about this (such as the Thread). I have received assistance in my research and that means the most...because I was at a disadvantage not living in the area. If and when the REAL Cooper is anounced - I am not even sure HOW I will handle it. I do NOT expect it to happen in my life time. SHOULD it NOT be DUANE WEBER - then as I have said before....and I will repeat what he said in WASHINGTON on that trip in 1979. He stated at one point "That's where Cooper Walked out of the Woods. I replied "How would you know that". Duane said: "Maybe I was the one on the ground." Precisely why I have always said that if Duane Weber was NOT Cooper then he knew who was. I KNOW what I held in my own hands and what I saw with my own eyes and the places he showed me and the things he said to me on the 1979 trip...and to cuminate that with his confession and the ensueing anger when I didn't understand what he was talking about.

Blevins states: "I never post up links to the book, but I'm constantly having my nose rubbed in it, as if writing it were an evil thing." Well, it was an evil thing to do and you knew exactly what you were doing and it is all about money. =================== Blevins states: "What happens is that no matter what I post, sooner or later, people are going to start mentioning 'it's all about the book'. " Your posts and your greed show through - your denials all spell Quilty as Charged! =================== Blevins states: "In the process, the Cooper Thing drove AB of Seattle to the edge of ruin We've been approached about the film rights, but nothing happens on that until September." Now you are doing everything you can do to salvage the financial problems by probagating your story and downplaying any other suspect. You don't care about the truth and that is the truth. ===================== Blevins states: "Yes, I do know how to write screenplays". I don't believe ANYONE said you couldn't write a screen play - and if you are now spending your time writing the screen play after the book supposedly was a money breaker of the AB of Seattle - why are you throwing GOOD money and GOOD time after BAD. YOU must be a COMPLUSIVE GAMBLER. ===================== Keep on and you will loose more than your time and money and your job. THIS is one STATEMENT you need to HEED, because you have NO idea what is happening. Definitely the FBI is NOT talking to you - RIGHT! DO you have any idea what they are telling others who enquire about your suspect? Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Let's see what the future holds. Thanks Sluggo. G. If you guys are through throwing punches today - perhaps we can find something interesting to talk about. I still think Pat71 is a screenwriter (the whole promo thing is going on with Pat71). Jo is not doing a movie or a book - she wants answers - that is all she has time for. I guess it makes me feel better to talk about myself in the second person at least for once in awhile. Blevins knows nothing about screen plays. Yes, a company may have offered him an option to develop a screen play, but does anyone know how long that takes? Lots of books sell the option rights to do a screen play and the screen play never ever happens....they want to tie up the option "just encase". How many writers have boasted about screenplays regarding Cooper? DS is associated with Hollywood and he has never done anything with his book, but keeps saying it is coming out. Galen keeps extending his deadline and I think he is justified in doing so, because Blevins is making an fool out of himself. Perhaps Blevins behavior is acceptable with fiction and science fiction, but not when you are trying to field an old crime. Nuttall had someone contact him but I have not talked to him since then - and he does not BLAB his private information all over the internet. When book writers have never dealt with the media - they get all caught-up in it and it is best to contact a really good entertainment attorney...(one will not find them in the smaller communities). There are only 3 decent such attorneys in the South. Miami, New Orleans and Atlanta...it is not profitable for them to operate out of small non media areas. They are also expensive. Geoffry Greys book would not be suitable for a screenplay, but could turn out to be a Cooper book that at least might stick around for awhile like Norjax did. Not sure if Norjax sold a lot of copies, but it is the most widely read by those who are researching Cooper. Tosaw's book is OK, but I really didn't get a lot out of it. Now I loved HA HA HA - laughed all the way through it - loved it. To bad it never got the press or promotion it deserved. A complete comedy about Cooper, but there were "hidden facts" inside of that story only Cooper knew....if some of the things I know are true - such as the story about the Springer Spaniel and the Shoe Shine guy at the PDX should ever be proven - then I will know in my heart of hearts Who Cooper Really Was! (Now that is a darn good title for documentary). Duane had a Springer Spaniel and he went to see a Shoe Shine guy in N.Orleans who used to have a booth in the PDX terminal. Just things that could be pure co-incidence. Sounds sing song just like a childrens story!

Blevins stated: As late as 1980 some banks would allow you to pay your safe deposit box forward for several yrs - all the person had to do was be sure to send the money to renew it. The bank would NOT care where the money came from as long as it had the correct information. When one gets a box they get the ONLY 2 keys for that box. If they are lost - the bearer has to pay for the drilling of the box. This is what is done when one is abandoned. All contents are required to be copied (regardless of how insignificant). Now I doubt they have to copy every single bill, but I do know if there are old car titles and such - they are stored - but I don't know for how many yrs...and a public notice is given so the heir might be able to claim the contents. Why do I know this - I was able to check out the boxes for Duane Weber. but not for JOHN COLLINS and the FBI knew this - they refused to provide me with the information I needed to prove Duane Weber and John Collins were one and the same. I went over this with AGENT CARR. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Georger, just addressing this to you when it is actually to everyone. Pat71 is beginning to sound like someone we ALL know. No - it is NOT Snowmman. The tactics being used along with the use of certain words. I think PAT is code for "patsy" and I do not believe is a name of someone.

I have viewed lots of pic of this Colonel and I don't see it. His jowls are too different and I believe that Georger will agree his face is NOT the right shape. This is a well know and public figure - he was too public to have commited this crime. Again why don't you discuss this with his family. If you can find all of this surely you have the guts to face a family member with what you are proposing before making him a suspect in a high profile case. There are few photos of Weber prior to 1979 and he confessed to the crime in 1994 - 11 days before he died. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Jo - no. Wong is not a Vietnamese surname - would be Vu'ong or Uông. I am terrible at determining Chinese from Vietnamese and Japanese. Unfortunately they all look the same to me. I alway get it wrong. I never knew anything other than Duane and this man had a past and his name was Tony Wong. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

..... 1) Do you know when the suit picture was taken? Let's guess. Three button suit with narrow shoulders and a narrow tie. I did note this man had circles under his eyes and like yourself would like to know when it was taken. He was born in 1930. Where was he living when he died? Would have been very daring to use his own name and somewhere I have heard a similar story before, but without the pictures.

It is my personal opinion the FBI is not comparing DNA they acquire because they cannot be assured the multi particial DNA in their possession actually belonged to Cooper. The only DNA they could be certain of would be the cigarette butts and they supposedly LOST those. This goes right back to what I said yrs ago...and to this date not one agent has produced those smokes. There were too many hands handling the materials - and DNA was unknown in 1971. I could almost put money on my conjecture below: The FBI LOST the butts, but before that did they check the butts for fingerprints - LOGICAL, right? So what happened to the butts - some agent just discards them as useless evidence. FBI agents and examiners dropped the ball and now they are trying to redeem themselves with DNA, accept they have NO evidence the tie actually belonged to Cooper and it was never handle in a manner that would protect the DNA.

I think it's time to cut through the baloney and find out the truth on this question once and for all. I do NOT remember anyone stating KC was eliminated by DNA. He was eliminated due to other factors - some of which have been discussed and the cursive investigation the FBI may have done on KC. I have also heard via the grapevine - the DNA on KC was not done, but not from the FBI. I will repeat Myths versus Facts - they have really been scrambled over the last 40 yrs. Couple that with the over-turn of agents this case has been assigned to and you have Utter CHAOS. Remember the agent who came to interview me was from the local office and didn't even know who Cooper was. Think about this - how did he know what to ask me and what to take as evidence. This same situation that has occured over and over with each new witness. Seattle depends on the assigned agents in the suspects domain with no knowledge of the crime. How effective is that? The agent who came to my home had to do a lot of reseach and he was overwhelmed by the amount of information I had. He took and copied many things and even took the original resume - which I have never received back from them. All I have is copy. This resume was in a plastic binder and would have had Duane's prints and DNA plus those of the preparer and myself along with a friend of mine who is now deceased. Hopefully they COMPARED that DNA and prints to DNA and prints on other items. This friend had also tried on the gloves and slippers. He also clowned around with a couple of Duane's pipes and I was clowning with him. So even IF THEY HAVE COOPER"S DNA how reliable is evidence provided by survivors of a suspect? The "supposed" tie DNA it has been compromised and we do NOT know if that tie was actually Coopers. The story on the tie is a mystery, but I still think I know the significance of the tie and its source. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Regarding Kenny Christiansen not being a viable suspect: I hope your "Brit" reporter is reading this thread, because if he isn't he should be. If he managed to snag an interview with the FBI agent of record and that agent is honest enough to state what he has stated to others - you will be told that KC is not a suspect. By the Way before you do a (she said he said), I have NOT personally been told this. My information is second hand. Maybe someone who has sat down with the agent of record or another writer with a personal interest or perhaps someone who knew Kenny or someone with a different suspect. Your choice. Why don't you just take yourself to the Seattle office and confront the Agent of RECORD yourself! If I lived in WA I would already have done that...especially if I was writng a book about the man. You have been told that Kenny was a "sweet guy" and would not have done this crime even though he may have had the capabilities. Perhaps it would be best if you went thru every person you ever spoke to about Kenny. You put a lot of words into the mouths of a lot of individuals and your 'witnesses'. You also took conversations totally out of context . You are a prime example of why my story about Duane Weber will never be written and why I stay out of the media except for this thread. You are like some of of the sneaky snakes who have slithered into my life in the last 15 yrs. Most of them took away more than I ever got from them and why I stay in this thread and continue to fight the battle. Hoping beyond all hope that just one of them in their intensive and extensive research about Cooper will find a link back to Duane L. Weber or John C. Collins If they find such a link will they even recognize it or even acknowledge it? That's my job - sit and wait and keep the story alive until I find that link...and I have found more than one. In 16 yrs I have encountered several writers and media individuals. Some are students studying criminology, others looking to write a first book, others accomplished authors & researchers & some just plain curious, There have been those who have used me - and I do not know how they will utilize anything I told them - perhaps to place me in the position of having to defend myself as I do in the thread. So far the books that have mentioned me - I never had any knowledge of until the books were published. The 2 books were Duane was mentioned took their info straight from the media - which all of you know was NOT accurate. I do not know how Grey will utilize what I told him - but, as far as Tina was concerned - we had a lengthy conversations about her. He called me one night when he was stuck in regards to Tina - and I guess he needed a little inspiration. We talked about how a young 22 yr old would think in 1971 and what would have been going through her mind given the times. I was 10 yrs + older than Tina and my daughter was 10 yrs younger than Tina in 1971. 1971 was a tormentual yr in history. We talked about how a 22 yr old might be able to cope with the incident and the effects it would have on her life...and if his chapter on Tina is worth the price of the book - I hope I was of some use. We talked about how this incident would have affected her marriage due to the media. No longer was Tina's life about what she wanted to do and her marriage had to have taken a toll from the media attentions during the subsequent yrs. All she has ever done is try to be FREE of Cooper, but she took the time to call me that one day and this is when she told me Cooper was a very sad man. Something the FBI site would later use and then they took it down when I confronted them about it. IF this was in the FBI reports then there was NO question that the woman on the other end of the line was Tina...and that was a good thing for me. I confronted the FBI because I told this on the thread and to the FBI and yet in the prior yrs they denied this. So who was the probagator of misinformation? Tina never got to have a normal life like most of us and there are writers and media personnel who do not respect this. They act like she OWES the public a story. One writer and I have duelled over this for a long time and even I have my weak moments when I want to pick up the phone and dial her number. I do truely want to have a face to face conversation with her before my time comes, but that may not happen because I cannot bear to present to her what I did to Florence. Florence was older and just more into the world and able to move on. Since she had spoke with the media several times I did try in February to contact her by sending her as package. I included a return envelope with pre-paid postage on it, but I never received the contents back nor any acknowlegement it was received. This was a total of $80 of material I enclosed and the mailing charges - not counting the time and other expenses involved in putting this item together. I regret I never received an acknowledgement - but she never asked that I send this. I would have like to have known it did not go into a dumpster.

Mr. Blevin, leave us be and leave Georger's short fuse out of this. Right now my own fuse is just about to ignite. Your book is NOT a personal issue with any of us, but your use of our reseach and this thread for personal gain are. Especially now that we are aware you did NOT read the thread before posting here. So what was your real motive in coming here in the first place? Mr. Kaye is aware that many of us have had to take time out - because we let our emotions get in the way. You see some of us are not here (on the DZ) for the publicity or to play games - we came here hoping and trying to find answers to questions never fielded in the media. When the posters keep records of what they say here and to others - that is NOT snooping around. We usually know when there is someone in our mist we need to watch...you being a writer warranted safe guards. Mr. Kaye probably could be coaxed back to make a post just to put the likes of you in your place. When you are as public as this thread is - almost anything you say can come back to bite you and pull you under. I personally didn't agree with Kaye, but we agreed to disagree. I questioned his creditials and wanted proof of his claimed ability to be able to make a call on the river money. I thought that was fair play. NO one here is trying to TRASH you - you are doing that all by yourself. Saying you didn't know who Kaye was equivocates to your repeatedly listing your 25 reasons to why KC had to be Cooper. When any of us ask for more information, you just repeat them . I assure you we all know them by heart now. NO one has attacked you. We all remember the 1st post of this thread - it would do you WELL to go and read POST #1. I know it by heart.

Blevins states: Ask Grey! I am the one who told him his book needed to be an overall view of the complete crime. Objectively and without any pre-determination of who Cooper was. There has NOT been a book that does this - and I felt that kind of book would still be around yrs from now. If I made a fancible remark perhaps you need to read the prior posts and see what was going on at that time. Even you are quilty of comebacks that are done spitefully (such as the one I am answering). I spoke with Grey briefly and he did NOT know what you could be talking about - this was yesterday. ==================== Blevins states: Jo Replies: Come on Blevins then you just stepped into a pile of CRAP. If you didn't read back into the thread - WHY did you even come here other than to PROMOTE your book? In other words you didn't come here to research your subject - but to promote him. Considering that Kaye posted in this thread and the River Sleuths derived from this thread - with all of this very very public - on TV and in New Papers - YOU claimed NOT to know who Kaye was until he called you! ====================== Blevins states: Jo Replies You keep on and on telling everyone you are not here to promote your book and yet you keep coming back to post how much time and money you spent and that if we all bought a book it wouldn't mean a thing. YOU know there are 1000's of skyjumper and 100's if not 1000's in the general population who read this thread. YOU were not born yesterday, nor was I and the people who read and post here are NOT that naive. ====================== Blevins stated: Jo replies: You proclaim yourself as a writer who investigated your subject and you didn't investigate the crime itself. You claim NOT to know who Kaye was and the RIVER SLEUTHS - THEY ARE PART of the Cooper story. How very sad that is - you have used this thread to the max. If you didn't read the thread before you posted here - why did you even post other than for promotion purposes. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Since your BOOK is finished and you are NOT going to change it again - WHY are you interviewing Kaye? Everything he had to say he said in this thread. What the xxxx is your purpose in interviewing Kaye other than to keep your name out there? All you are doing is promoting your book or you are doing another re-write. Just what do you think Kaye has to offer other than what he has posted here - perhaps you are looking for what he didn't post. You know the money was NOT in the river until a few months before it was found. You do know that Kaye's expertise may give him some credentials, but why don't you ask him EXACTLY what his educational experience is and what if anything makes him an individual qualified to analyze the money and how it got there. This is out of his realm of experience unless he can produce the credentials that qualify him - and I am talking about all the degrees and doctorates required - such as biology, chemistry, ecology in regards to the rivers and lakes and all bodies of water within the USA. There was all of the talk about diatomes and spores ---- and I believe what he found was a relative common spore found in many areas. Problem is the material had been handle by mulitple agents and spores could have been transferred even on the exam gloves or just from the dander of ones hair or spores picked up on the clothing worn by anyone who came in contact with that money....and to include the ventilation system of the FBI storage room and any rooms that expose the money to unsterile elements. Frankly I hope Kaye has enough common sense to see through you and your motive. I will do Georger one better - he Ba, ba, ba'ed you like a sheep, but I think you deserver more - like HEE HAW- HEE HAWWwwww AAW! and OH Georger - this one is for you. Are you.

What do I know about James B. and his "wife" that you guys do not know. He was an avid reader always had his nose in a book and would sit and read while his "wife" walked the beach. Approximately 2003.

Who was Roy Bakker? When the FBI figures that one out then they will know who Dan Cooper was. I put this in their lap in 1996, but I didn't have a name to go with he story. Until I went out to WA in Oct of 2011 - I did not know exactly where this spot was that Duane had shown me. I told JT about it in 1996, but he said it didn't exist. 1. I found the property and I now know it belonged to Roy Bakker. 2. This man even claimed to know who Cooper was. 3. Duane claimed to known a man who owned a very specific piece of land. 4. I was told today that a man by that name used to go to Lake Merwin every yr. hoping to see the man he believed to be Cooper. 5. Since my memory is getting pretty bad - does anyone remember the initials of a man I was looking for - he owned n old homemade camper that ended up in the Columbia river where the old ferry used to be that went to Government Island. 6. He claimed he didn't know how his car and camper got into the Columbia. 7. This was found about 3 days after the skyjacking. 8. The man had left his camper and vehicle at the Portland PDX. 9. When he returned it was gone. 10. This is NOT a riddle this is evidence that was put infront of the FBI in 1996 - BUT, a certain party made sure I didn't find out the man's name by telling the "hill" or "mt" did NOT exist. 11. Well - today I found his name and now all the FBI has to find is living relatives who might have picture or remember him telling his story. 13. Might be interesting if the FBI found out the background of this man. 14. Might be interesting if the FBI found a connection between Duane Weber (Dusty) and whatever last name he was using when he knew Bakker. 15. Why was this hidden from me . 16.Why didn't the FBI listen to me? 17. Why didn't the FBI investigate the area - OR did they just leave it for JT to do? 18. What authority does JT have in the investigation or with the crime...that gives him the right to investigate or hide information? 20. Why didn't the FBI go check this out themselves - They had to know where this hill was - everyone else knew the area I was talking about. - except JT. 21. I am not brain dead yet and I still keep finding things. I handed this off to the Creator, but never expected he would ever put the answer infront of me. 22. What connections is there between Roy Bakker, Bafus, Hansen and Finely and Fargher? Another name in the mix is Nutsell or something that sounded like that.

In my case facts known publically, theory, supposition, hearsay and even what Duane told me or facts I discovered on my own can kick one in the rear. I tried to connect all of the dots and I have tried to understand many things that are FAR above my level of comprehension (such as fight lingo), but I still get lost. At least I admit it - Blevins just doesn't even when the FACTS and LOGIC dispute some of the things he claims. I just try to hold on with the things I do know - what they mean to me and to someone else are 2 separate things. I am the one who stands accountable for the things I claim are true. Alway try to clarify conjecture and theory from the things I actually know....but sometime these become co-mingled in my thinking and the thinking of others. After 15 yrs it get harder and harder to separate facts and theories when there are so many of them (not just on my part but on the part of the thread and the general public). Today I learned something that made my ears PERK up. Barker or Barkker or Bakker. Remember the Mezker map I acquired at a great deal of expense - it was TAKEN from me. . Did I loose it or didI misplace it? Well, the land that Duane told me at the foot of the "hill or Mt" that JT claimed did not exist. It belong to a Barkker or Barker or Bakker - but, my photo memory has gotten old and I can't remember the 1st intial. Today I learned that a man by the name of Barkker or Barker was a regular at the Ariel Tavern until his illness and death. He claimed to know who Cooper was! Duane told me he knew the man who owned that specific piece of land. HOW ODD is that? To me the pieces have come together, but only for me. Perhaps I will always be known as - just that crazy old delusion woman who claimed her husband was Dan Cooper. But I know in my heart he was and it is JUST not right that the FBI spend hours with media and book writers, but they cannot give me 2 hours of their time. Damned the FBI - and their so called investigation. The United States Government can spend money for Eng to talk to media and writers and others, but NOT 2 hour with the one woman who holds the secrets that Cooper kept. This is why our GOVERNMENT is going broke - we have FBI agent who are paid to talk and NOT to investigate. The few that try to investigate are using information thru brief conversations that came to the investigator second or third hand. NONE of this is fair. NONE of it. My heart breaks everytime I find one more thing that I have repeated over and over and over and no one ever heard me. I hope JT is strung up by his toes and ankles in the middle of the forest and left to be eaten alive by whatever animal that would have him. That scoundrel alone is the reason the FBI turned their back - makes one wonder just where the justice in this so called America is. As I said - my feelings are raw lately and I will NEVER be heard and no one will every believe me. So why do I continue to try - I used up my life and now I have no life left....I don't regret that - I do regret that I was never heard.

What Georger had to say about Blevins: You know Georger I wish I had read this before I made the last few posts - could have saved myself a lot of time and effort and anger. I am just so fed up with his self-imposing attitude and utilizing things said before HE ever even knew this thread existed. (Acting like it was ALL his idea). We all know he did not even know the facts clearly until we tutored him. Now I wish we had just left him be like leaves of three. Instead we wanted the facts of the crime to be accurate and look what we created! Cooper Ego-Maniac! Jo Weber (me) is a pain in the ASS, but she is not selling a book. Just a woman who believes with all of her heart and soul Duane Weber was Dan Cooper. The FBI can spend time with the likes of Blevins and JT and other writers, but they won't even allow me the answers to simple questions. Everyone else wants to write a book and I want answers to simple questions about Duane Weber. Answers as to why the FBI has ignored certain things about Duane and has avoided providing me with that information...even if I had to sign a statement to get these answers. What is so secret about Duane that the FBI can't even state valid reasons why he could NOT be Cooper? Was he in jail someplace? Do they know where all of the money came from he was spending? Why did they not question the individuals I told them about? Why are they withholding information from me that I requested and yet make it available to other individuals? Why would they withhold information that kept me from using his John Collins ID to draw SS on? Too tired to go on. Just Sick and Tired of fighting this battle - but I will make it to WA one last time if it kills me. If they can state unequivocabley Weber was NOT Cooper then they should be able to prove that, yet they have not returned a simple phone call or email, but they interview with a London writer and US writers regarding unlikely suspects. Time for the FBI to TALK to me privately and answer MY questions. That is what is fair. Giving 2 hour interviews to writers - that will NOT solve this crime....all it does is DRAG it out and that is the plan - DRAG it out until I die. They spend time with the likes of JT who tells them I am a liar - when I am not and anyone who knows me knows I am not. They did NOT give me the time when it counted - now it is too late - most of us except me are dead. No one planned on Cooper marrying a woman 17 yrs younger than himself. I don't even know why I should care - no one else does. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Blevins you miss it all around. Cooper did NOT put the money in the river until 1979 - it was just a stupid mistake by a man who claimed in 1957 his occupation was 'crook'. In his mind he figured they would find the damaged money and think he drowned - he didn't think it would stir things up. There is NO way the money survived in that river for 8 yrs. Most of us have let you ramble on and on about Paradise park the money and downriver - I hope the London man has the forthought and knowledge to know how naive that was on your part. I have known this and just let it be like leaves of three. Yea, you tried to put yourself in the shoes of the hijacker - like you think that is even possible. But, you are right - he was hoping they would find the money and stop looking for him. Stupid thing to do, but it worked. Leaving 3 bundles in one place - only a "CROOK" who always got caught would do a stupid thing like that. How do you know he didn't put more money in the water - but that it was just never found? Your entire post has been done for the summary purposes of this man who supposedly reads this thread. All he has to do is go back and read the other thread and this thread before you ever got into the picture and it is all here. YOU have added nothing to this - all you have ever done is come into this thread to sell your book - no other reason. You do NOT really care who the REAL Cooper is or was....all you want to do is sell your suspect! If you had truely been interested in Cooper it would not wait until you were doing a book on your suspect - yet, you tried and failed miserable to write a book about Cooper without having all of the facts and using a suspect who does NOT fit the criterior. NOT once have you Thanked the many contributors of the thread for the knowledge and facts they help you with nor did you acknowledge the DZ in you book or the credits. HOW very little of you! You don't want the general public to know about the aid this thread provided you as it might jeopardize your stand on KC and the knowledge for which you take credit for.

Robert Blevins - I was addressing Bob Sailshaw's questions: The only way to get away with a crime is to go right back at them - the last place they would look. At least that is one theory I have heard. One of Duane's most stated remarks. The only reason you replied to that email is because the London guy per you was reading the thread - you want to make yourself look good...sorry NO Bananas. As for Janet's so called threat - I don't take it as threat and all of this has been exaggerated by the writers and the media. It could have been as simple as - please don't talk about this and we will be in touch. Mexico versus not intending to remain on board. YOU know that has been the consenses since day one - but you would love for the public to believe it was your idea. As for the money being on the bar - you and everyone else knows that in 1996 when I called the FBI and told them about the trip in 1979 and the visits Duane made down to the Columbia - put the money in the Columbia. I was NOT even aware on May 25, 1996 where Tina's bar was and did NOT realize that his "Sentimental Journey" explained the money. I had read NO accounting of the crime when I called the FBI on that day. All I had available was a book that was mostly fiction. I was on the phone before I got 1/3 of the way thru the book and then back on the phone 14 pages later. There was NO research on my part and I did not have a computer. "Sentimental Journey" is my name for the trip simply because it was a song he used to sing. I had a book in my hands and a sudden realization of who Dan Cooooper was - the name Duane said in the hospital. Until that moment in when I was reading the book I did NOT know the name used by D.B. Cooper was Dan Cooper. It was like the lights suddenly came on and I was in shock. Paradise Point State! You and everyone else have had some ridiculous theories to explain the money at Tena's bar, yet I explained it in 1979 without even knowing what I was doing. I was just telling what I remembered. Yes, Paradise Point is part of my story - because I told the FBI and Thomas about what Duane said going up the I-5. Duane made a comment about where the guys used to go for recreation (I didn't know the name of the place) to the left of the highway and he talked about a place where someone hid something one time on the other side of the road and there was a covert going under the road. Jerry Thomas kept getting this area mixed up with what I was told in the Washougal area - and what Duane said near Lake LaCames when he made his ONLY comment about Cooper on that whole trip. It was on I-5 Duane just after mentioned the parallel powerlines and the pipeline and before the cemetary as we approached the Lewis River. It was also during this time he said he used to know a woman in St. Helens, OR but we were not going there that day. Duane did NOT mention money or Cooper on I-5 the way JT interperted my conversations with him. Yes, the money was planted in 1979 about the last wk of Sept or 1st week of Oct. By none other than Duane L. Weber. KC would NOT have planted money in an area that might lead right back to him. Why would KC leave a red herring when he still lived in the area. That money was left by the "crook" that always kept getting caught. I think he left more than that one package of money - but, it was the only one found. The other I think was buried E of Winterly Park - I had always thought he was digging something up - but now I think he may have buried something. Who knows? I don't and I was married to the man for 17 yrs. "IT WORKED. Today, the Bureau's position (much of it based on the found money) is that Cooper probably died in the jump.)" I could never have said that any better and why it is your quote. You know I mentioned I-5 and the park to JT who erroneously claimed that was where Duane made his statement about Cooper. This is what started the squabble between JT and I - HE kept getting what I was trying to tell him all scrambled up. Everyone on this thread can attest to JT scrambling thoughts. Plus I had only been to WA that one time in 1979 and had NO map of the area...just a map of the N.W (an old Osha map of one/half of the US). Blevins you said: "Other than more-heavily-patrolled KOA/private type campgrounds, it was the only camping in the area that is near the Washougal and literally a stone's throw from the freeway". Why is that remotely important except to tell your story? You state: "The money was found just downriver from the park. This is one of the biggest reasons, we think". THAT MAKE NO SENSE at ALL. I believe you need to explain that reasoning not only to me, but to everyone here. Please do NOT re-interate the points you made - you have to do better than that. Back in 1971 - I bet there might have been ONE pay phone used by all of the campers. I did a lot of camping in those yrs and most times we were lucky if we could find a pay phone. You have made the same statements over and over and over till no one wants to hear them anymore. I will state the one very important thing you keep leaving out. Kenny Christiansen was 5' 8" and had hazel eye and was balding - that does NOT meet the description of Cooper. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Robt99 You are right - Someone is feeding the Monkey and I know who it is. Most pick through what they are fed so they don't digest something that will make them turn into a Baboon. Words can be Magic! Words can create a false sense of knowledge or ignorance. I am quilty of all of this...but Bob is eating out of the hand of someone who wants his hide hanging on his wall.
