Until John F. Kennedy’s murder is solved, America will continue to be curious about how many people were (are?) responsible for his public demise. Will a digital analysis of his murder prove what we conspiracy theorists (I confess) already know? From the Herald Tribune:
Scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have begun work on a digital scanning apparatus that they believe will be able to reproduce sound from the only known audio recording of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas.The recording was made through an open microphone on a police motorcycle during Kennedy’s motorcade into Dealey Plaza, where the president was shot to death. The sounds were captured onto a Dictaphone belt at police headquarters, but scientific analyses of them over decades proved anything but conclusive, fueling arguments about how many people were actually involved in killing the president….
Leslie C. Waffen, an archivist with the National Archives, said he believed not only that the sound could be captured but also that, using digital analysis to map the sounds, scientists could remove extraneous noise like static and distant voices to reveal gun shots.
“This is big,” said Mr. Waffen, whose unit has custody of the belt as well as the original 8-millimeter home movie by Abraham Zapruder, which showed the assassination in color but utter silence. “That’s why we called the experts in. They came up with a recommendation to do this.”
While I believe Lee Harvey Oswald pulled a trigger from the book depository, he didn’t act alone.
I’m just a patsy.
According to the Zapruder film and my own eyes, the head shot came from the right front of JFK. If Oswald shot from the rear, that means at least one other person was shooting in Dealey Plaza that day. If two people were involved, we have a conspiracy. I guess I’m writing about this stuff as if I’m telling you something new. 
I have another confession: I love the movie JFK. It’s one of those films I can watch over and over again. I even read the script from time to time. I’m no Oliver Stone fan, however. Well, not really.
