Touring the Tippit Scene

Bill, a most excellent tour despite Robert Groden’s attempt to disrupt it with all his horn honking.

I am not attempting to prove anything beyond a reasonable doubt. I am stating valid reasons to believe in the likelihood of LHO visiting the TT before 11/22/63. You can disagree if you so desire. But to state that there is no likelihood because everything is hypothetical is ridiculous.

No, it’s accurate. You need some basis for decreeing something to be more likely than not — beyond a “could have happened” hypothetical.

“The Texas was the first air conditioned theater in Dallas; the original equipment is still in place (long since updated) as of Jun 14, 2012.”

That just says that the originally installed equipment was still there. It doesn’t tell you when the original equipment was first installed.

Cite, please.

Marina and Lee by Priscilla McMillan Johnson - Chapter 31

It was fearfully sultry and hot, and their only air-conditioning was an old kitchen fan. Lee went naked around the apartment a good deal of the time and sometimes spent the whole day lying on the sofa on his stomach, without a stitch on, reading a book.

Hearsay. And quote a bit different from your original claim:

“Marina tells of LHO staying inside and wearing only his underpants in an effort to stay cool in New Orleans”

That just says that the originally installed equipment was still there. It doesn’t tell you when the original equipment was first installed.

Jerry Freeman’s post (#82) in this thread clarifies that I am correct about the A/C system being part of the original construction in 1931. Thanks Jerry!  Like I said earlier in this thread, I don’t believe any amount of evidence will ever convince you of anything at all.

You are grossly misusing the word decree. Much like you did the word arbitrary.
