Not true Georger. Snowmman uses modeling. I've used it. Bet Nature Hominid has as well. All EEs know its value. 377 Um. Um. Raises hand. Ok I know you scientist types look down on us, but still. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Leaving aside your continued basic logical failure to understand the stupidity of that statement, let me ask: if LD, or another suspect's,fingerprints are found to be a match, would you accept that as proof? Or would you come up with some other half-cocked theory as to how Duane could still be involved? Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

To be fair to Blevins, I didn't interpret the mention of the AB book as a plug, and I did think mentioning that the interviewer had a different suspect was the right thing to do - like a financial journalist writing about a company should mention if s/he holds stock in that company.

Are you even prepared to consider the fact that he had nothing to do with Cooper? In other words - do you REALLY want to know who he was, or do you just want to prove he was Cooper? Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Jo, I'm sure you said this with the best of intentions, but honestly...what on earth makes you think a bunch of people on the net, half of whom have clearly vested interests (just look at your own post history) are going to come up with anything objective enough to fit the above? For a start, you'd never agree to anything that didn't fit Duane. What's the point? The FBI has already taken on board the citizen sleuths it trusts. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

That's pretty hilarious. Jerry must have some powerful mojo to be responsible for the conspiracy theories you did not have. 377 On marla's story....my biggest issue with it is simply how much you can really remember from when you were 8. I mean, I know I can remember some stuff in a lot of detail, but still. Still waiting for someone to find the parachute out in the woods....with or without bones attached.

What is the rest of the thread doing? I think it's informative? Where do the wild conspiracy theories fit in, in the above classifications? Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Agree completely on every word of the above. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Do I recall correctly that he asked for the cabin lights to be turned low or off? He knew that much at least. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

This is hardly news. As for the rest of it....blah blah blah. Dan and Jo playing games, now we have Jerry and Georger bickering with each other... Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Are you calling me shrill? As you'll see I haven't been posting much. This is why! I am getting so irritated with 20% of the posters taking up 80% of the forum on stuff that adds 0%.... In better news, we finally have a wind tunnel down here. Well, it's not a real one, it's open air, but good enough for a couple of ex team mates turned into focused working moms to have some fun

Now I'm laughing. First because Jo you kept on saying everything was Jerry's fault. Now it is Knoss's. I'm tempted to tell you to look in the mirror for the most damaging person to Duane's case. But the truth at the end of the day is simply that there is no proof, none whatsoever, not one shred of evidence, that Duane was Cooper. Duooper is simply the result of wild conjecture and leaps of logic, no more, no less. I do wish Dan would stop playing games, give us the gorilla and then we can actually debate it properly. I have no idea if he has a real suspect or some Knossian version of one. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Spill the beans then... Who's the gorilla? Until you do you are no better than Jo. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

You "testifying" to something is not proof. Come on, Jo, find it. Prove it. You've demanded for years that other people "prove" stuff - now it's your turn, and this is a lot easier than proving someone wasn't Cooper. And while you're at it, explain why you have never before disputed the forties age. You can't prove Duane was Cooper so show us that you can at least prove one of your claims. Incidentally now you say "someone posted it", but I would prefer primary source proof. PS 377 - "Duooper" - I love it. Pronounced "dwooper" I presume....it's absolutely perfect. Onomatopoeic. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Really? Prove it. Show us one from your well-kept files. It must at least be easier to prove than your claim that Duane was anything more than a two-bit thief. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Well, you've just had any sympathy evaporate. More games, teases, and let's be honest, bullshit from you. Either you were "playing" him as you say, or you weren't and are now trying to cover it up. Either way, it's pathetic. As for your sudden claim of "fiftyish"... for years on this thread we have spoken about forties, even sometimes considering people in their late 30s. You've never disputed the age as being 40s before. All of a sudden you decide to add another ten years? I hope Green Elf (a welcome, reasoned poster) manages to stick around through all these yards and yards of rubbish (and no Jo it's not just you - Blevins too. Miles and miles of NOTHING OF VALUE.) I can't say I was over the moon to see Knoss posting again, but at least he keeps his posts mercifully short. Can you believe it - I have just made a statement that puts Knoss in a positive light, even if only a relative basis. Maybe it's time I took a break. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

That OP didn't swing by this "epic thread" (thanks Quade ) did he? Would have been interesting to see him comparing notes with deathray on this apparent Cooper. Who admittedly didn't claim to niteflier to be Cooper, and may just have been one of the guys who jumped in Asia... Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

I wish that were true, but it's not. All you want is proof that Duane was Cooper. You will never accept anything else as being "the truth". Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

Uh, duh. A nun's habit, of course. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

First the trivia - Blevins, milli vanilli was pre 1992 so may be on your iPod . Deathray - whatever you may personally believe to be the truth,, 377 is well known by all of us to have integrity. (I'm not sure why he got attacked for going to one of the best universities around either. That just sounds like sour grapes.) But more to the point there is an obvious question you haven't answered: why would Cooper tell you who he was? Chewing him out on a DZ hardly seems a good reason for a wanted felon who has successfully evaded capture for over 20 years by that date, to confide who he is to a total stranger and expect said stranger to stay quiet?

I feel a song lyric is appropriate right now. Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right.... (A song I now forever associate with ears being cut off, thanks Quentin, but I do not feel a need to resort to such violent tendencies.) Sigh.... I do wish reporters and authors had not felt the need to publicize this thread, though. Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.

What are you implying Jo? Sounds nasty to me or am I misreading you? 377 Normal Jo response to anyone who might undermine her story, even if the person's own story is equally far-fetched Skydiving: wasting fossil fuels just for fun.
