And the dish ran away with the spoon. Hey! Diddle diddle ... next verse, same as the first
-
My comments were about Flo, not Tina ? Im confused... by all accounts Tina was bright, alert, a good student, socially intelligent, etc etc. all in stark contrast to Florence ?
-
I think you have nailed it. She never wanted to deal with it! I wonder what her IQ is/was ? She doesnt strike me as being too intelligent ? Definitely an emotional person. A liability in any crisis ?
-
Flawless Flo Perfection, seemed to have a knack for throwing fits and becoming speechless-hysterical. I am not sure I would trust her 'judgements'. She may be the weakest link. Was she on or off medications? What was her 'mood' when and if she allowed herself to have a mood ? Perfection is always difficult to obtain and maintain.... with every hair in place and everyone else wrong!

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm .... interesting.

I didnt say you said he was Cuban. I said no Cuban accent was detected. He had two arms, two legs, . . . and no Cuban accent. He had a head, two ears, ten fingers ?

During the flight from Portland to Seattle Mucklow had light conversation with the hijacker. She asked him where he was from but he became upset and said he didn’t want to answer that. She steered the conversation into remarking ‘that if they were going to Cuba airline personnel were advised to warn passengers against buying Cuban rum or cigars because US Customs would confiscate them when they returned to the United States. (Mucklow says) the hijacker laughed and said ‘they weren’t going to Cuba, but she would like where they were going’. He asked her where she was from and she told him she was from Pennsylvania but was living in Minneapolis. He replied that ‘Minneapolis, Minnesota is very nice country’. No Cuban accent.

People commonly hatch such stories in a vacuum - facts are left out for a variety of reasons - the motivation is not fact-based! For some reason these stories never backfire on their tellers - people are never held to account for these stories.
-
The hijacking got massive news coverage. At the time most hijackings were political. (everything is political ?)

What are the options you see for Cooper escaping capture?
-
The money could have lead to his capture. Is that risk however small, worth it ? Would you trade your life/freedom for $200k? 500k? one million? . . . .
-
I had no idea you thought this! Good grief!! Now there are two of us in the MINORITY... Thank you sir.

I happen to be one of the few people who think the Cooper hijacking was 'political' vs monetary, and Cooper escaping into oblivion (being untraceable) was a fundamental part of his plan. By his own words, he waited looking for the right plane in the right place at the right time. I think his money demand may be been a token vs some financial need on his part - and he may have even tossed the money into the Columbia so there could be no connection between the money and himself. His hijacking may have been a singular event in his life. [the mass of men live lives of quiet desperation...Thoreau ] There is precedent for this kind of crime or 'social expression'. For example, had the Una Bomber not issued his public manifesto which got published, he might not have been found during his lifetime. He said after the fact that his manifesto was a 'mistake'. Core to his grudge against 'technology' were the railroads and the airlines.

this is a test* all ok . . .

We know the kit used - we know the loci tested for - what we dont know are the values obtained on each of those loci, except that the FBI says all they have is a 'partial'. They define partial by saying: Can exclude people but not rule people in ! They wont give us numbers. All of this is complicated further buy severe competition between people on forums. Doing anything in Cooperland has reached literal gridlock, and everyone has seen that developing since the Colbert situation followed by Ulis/Kaye. It appears these players are not going to relinquish control but only intensify their control over Cooperland. Ulis is now engaged in a hopeless suit against the FBI trying to get the FBI to release dna information to him! This current gridlock is set to continue - for years!
-
The only person who could connect the two would be Cooper himself and thats never going to happen, apparently. Carr interviewed Weinberg to see if Weinberg had any idea who the man DB might have been - results were apparently negative. The DB case is full of 'apparentlies' and little hard evidence, so far. For example: if bones were found today in the LZ area and dna was extracted from the bones and teeth, could that data be connected to the partial profile the FBI claims to have? So far as I know, nobody in the public domain can answer that question ??? Moreover Ulis introduced turmoil and split the Cooper community. That was intentional on Ulis' part. There isnt even a functioning Cooper community for discussing the case now.

Ive lost track of when and who released the Dan Cooper comic info first. Tom's team member Carol Abraczinskas? Or Snowmman first before Carol ? 2008-10 ? Tom Kaye included it in his first citizen sleuths website around 2010 ? I do remember that Carr advertised and used it almost immediately ... Carol used it to claim Cooper might have been Canadian .... I am sure Tom Kaye can recite chapter and verse on when the comic first surfaced but, it was Snowmman who dug deep into the publishing history of the comic ....... followed by FJ adding his own research several years later.

DB Cooper Sleuth analysis.

Cooper was also tied in to the Cooper-Richards family of pre Revolutionary War Shenandoah Valley Virginia given land by Mandate of King George then rebelled - those Coopers that fought and beat Lord Fairfax in the Shenandoah Valley. Cooper descendants then moved out into the whole west, some of their descendants even in Oregon and Washington .... but they remembered their history and who they were. In other words a real history vs a comic book history ! After all, this is a guy who had a real historical name rich in American history. No need for obscure comic book ology that wasn't even published or known in the United States of America, the Home of the Original Thirteen Colonies! Everyone with an "education" knows the name Cooper, in American history!

Only a wacko hijacks an airplane because of some comic ? Very likely DBC knew nothing about this comic, amd he wasnt seeking hero status. He was just 'some guy' with a specific plan and a need; said he had a grudge. Grudges are political. Everything else is just coincidence and social invention, which might even shock the real DBC. DBC never claimed to be the son of God or the Messiah! Only Eric Ulis and his ilk claim that because it serves Ulis' personal agenda. It is Ulis and others who are seeking fame, not DBC. If you can keep that in mind you can keep your head straight in this Ulis social media invention for the consuming public ... you pay your dime and you make your choice just like at the Ulis Cassino.

I have no idea what you mean ? But ... I have been wondering where things go from here? Forums fractured. No consensus or direction from anyone ??? .............................. ? Edwards seems to be the only one still on task working the case? Applause to Dr Edwards.

A TiSb particle cannot land on a tie that does not even exist yet at Penny's! The time frame is constrained ? I am also concerned if this even is a TiSb alloy? what type of alloy? Proof according to ??? I am also concerned about relying on one special particle alone, to hang a whole case on ? That will never float, except in some Ulis TV docu-drama. Are we witnessing another Colbert cloned fantasia .
