Then went outside to watch P. parade ( Parts 1 & 2 )

Nope, you're just reading that into it.

It's how the English language works (not your strong suit, I know)
In the context of the story being told "the door" can only refer to a door of the second floor central office. That's a fact of how the English language works. It's not a question of me reading into it.
It cannot refer to any other door.

The scene Ms Scranton sets is of the place where they all were at the time Ms Reid told them of the incident.

I know it's the place where they all were at the time Mrs Reid told them of the incident.
That's the whole point of what I'm saying.
The place where Scranton heard Reid telling the story and the place where Reid states she saw Oswald in her WC testimony is the same place.
You do realise that don't you?

Why, just in your last post you wrote: "I totally accept Scranton is recalling this correctly." Time to take a walk, Mr O'Meara, you obviously need some air!

English really isn't your strong suit 

You're being asked a specific question -

"What evidence do you have Reid's encounter with Oswald happened at the front entrance of the TSBD? "

Kindly answer

The place where Scranton heard Reid telling the story and the place where Reid states she saw Oswald in her WC testimony is the same place.

Again, here's what Ms Scranton actually says in that Sixth Floor Museum interview:

"Mrs Reid said that she, when everybody was walking and milling and so forth, that Lee came to the door with a coke in his hand and said, 'What's all the excitement about?'"

Let's for a moment "totally accept Scranton is recalling this correctly" (Mr D. O'Meara). What "excitement" could Mr Oswald have been talking about if this encounter happened in a quiet, empty office area? And why would Ms Reid drop Mr Oswald's question from all subsequent tellings of her story?

[Alan Ford]

Mr. BALL. Did you ask him what happened that day; where he had been?
Mr. FRITZ. Yes, sir.
Mr. BALL. What did he say?
Mr. FRITZ. Well he told me that he was eating lunch with some of the employees when this happened, and that he saw all the excitement and he didn’t think, I also asked him why he left the building.

Question! Where would someone need to be to be a) eating lunch with some of the employees, b) seeing all the "excitement"?

I would imagine the Domino room.
In this scenario Oswald is having his lunch around the time the president is assassinated.
He decides to get a coke from the second floor
As he leaves the Domino room he becomes aware of some commotion at the front enteance.
He goes up to the second floor and gets his coke.
Baker and Truly burst in.
Oswald walks into the second floor central office and sees Reid
After seeing the commotion downstairs and then been confronted by an armed policeman Oswald wants to know what all the excitement is about.
Reid tells him the president is shot.

For the third time -

"What evidence do you have Reid's encounter with Oswald happened at the front entrance of the TSBD? "


Kindly answer     



(And don't forget this:

Mr. BELIN. Did you see anything else of people running or doing anything else?
Mrs. REID. No; because I ran into the building. I do not recall seeing anyone in the lobby. I ran up to our office.

Oh dear )

In which Mr O'Meara once again pretends it's 2010 and the Hosty draft report doc doesn't exist. Genius!

For the third time -

In which Mr O'Meara pretends he has accounted for the shadow down Mr Lovelady in Wiegman. Genius!

In which Mr O'Meara refutes the idea that a witness lied in their WC testimony by quoting from---------their WC testimony. Genius!

Lee simply came to the door and asked...What's all the excitement about?

I seriously doubt that Lee came to any door and asked that question.....Where did you get that information....It clashes with all other accounts .... For example ...Lee never alluded to any such incident...And Mrs Reid said that Lee walked thtough the office area and right past her desk and never said anything until she said something about "someone shot the President"....

At that time, (which was  about two minutes after the first shot was fired) Mrs Reid wouldn't have known that JFK had been hit.....And she couldn't have known if someone had shot at JFK, or what the shooting was about.
