Sure it is "Iacoletti" How can you prove that "Iacoletti" just made the above post?

Not according to Brennan.

He doesn't have to. You already did, when you researched him and found out where he worked.

Not everyone is too cowardly to post under his real name.

Nice circular argument, “Mytton”.

"Mytton" claims to be from Australia, but very often he's on line when it's the middle of the night down under.

He's probably English

Yes, but do you think any of these differences were due to the lighting conditions?

Could be. The underlying issue is that variations in lighting, background, and human perception can affect how any particular witness describes a particular color. Does this prove it was Oswald? No. Does it allow some room for doubt that Brennan was describing Oswald. A little bit. Is it a deal-killer proving that Brennan didn't see Oswald? No. 

I take it your insistence on asking the same question spring from what might be called some kind of whizzing match with some other poster, but there's no point in keeping that up, is there.

I realize now the shirt in the photograph is a shirt shown under artificial light. Sunlight is more powerful.





Wasn't Brennan comparing the trousers to the darkness of the shirt as shown him in CE 150?

Mr. BELIN. I am handing you what the court reporter has marked as Commission Exhibit 150.
     Does this look like it might or might not be the shirt, or can you make at this time any positive identification of any kind?
Mr. BRENNAN. I would have expected it to be a little lighter--a shade or so lighter.
Mr. BELIN. Than Exhibit 150?
Mr. BRENNAN. That is the best of my recollection.
Mr. BELIN. All right.
     Could you see the man's trousers at all?
     Do you remember any color?
Mr. BRENNAN. I remembered them at that time as being similar to the same color of the shirt or a little lighter.



The other shirt he supposedly wore seems to be light under artificial light.

Good work Jerry!

Worn out t-shirts ARE very comfortable. And the dinginess was probably a result of years of use without using bleach when he washed it.
Marina washed his shirts when they were together. That is how she knew what all he wore.

I was referring to the Ultra Downey TV ad:

> Ultra Downy TV Commercial, 'Half-Washed: The U-Neck Shirt'

When a man removes his sweater during a first date, the woman is dumbstruck by his half-washed shirt. The stretched-out V-neck looks more like a U-neck. He tells her she looks amazing, but all she can reply is how amazingly comfortable he looks.
