Uninterrupted TSBD rooftop Hertz sign time display = no power failure

[John Mytton]

Is that somehow supposed to tell you anything about whether the elevators had power when Mooney and Adams tried them?

 That's not the point, I haven't yet seen any presented reason for the conspirators to manipulate the power so long after the assassination and as you said "The same as the chances of any power outage happening at any particular time.", Ooops, I'm a naughty Boy happens!

Geez what are the chances that whenever Iacoletti sees a possible two choices he'll present this tired old chestnut! Yawn!

Only when you trot out your old chestnut of pretending like there are only 2 possibilities.

What conspirators?  Why is Richard so emotionally invested in there not being a power outage?

[Chris Douglas]

I hadn't noticed if it was said in the thread already but which floor is the power for the elevators on.? Point being, is it possible that the conspirator turned the power off on the way out the door, as a way to slow down anyone from going upstairs (or down) in a hastily manner.?

[Richard Smith]

It's only "plausible" because that's the way you want it to be.  Mooney said "we had no more power on the elevator".  Deal with it.

Again, for the tenth time, no one disputes that Mooney thought there was a power outage.  But that doesn't make it so.  There are other plausible alternatives that have been laid out ad nauseam.  Deal with that Inspector Ding-a-Ling.

Did the passenger elevator have a gate?

LOL.  Not relevant because Adams didn't get on the passenger elevator.   Her difficulty wasn't getting it to move like Mooney.  It simply didn't show up when she called it.  From that she ASS-u-med (one of your favorite words) that it didn't come because of a power outage.

[Richard Smith]

How do you know this was around 12:36?

What time do you think it happened?  That is the time attributed to it in Reclaiming History.  Could it be off by a minute or two?  Possibly but no apparent relevance.  The obvious point is that Sawyer took the passenger elevator up and then back down in this timeframe.  Confirming that it was working and had power.
