Everything that John Iacoletti said was factual.


No, Iacoletti said "Deputy Mooney also mentioned that the power had been cut", please point out when and where Hine says the power had been cut?

What Hine said had nothing to do with what Mooney said, and Mooney did in fact say that the power had been cut.

John's comment was factual.

Once again, "Richard's" mind-reading skills underwhelm.  She said nothing about lights ON THE PHONE.  And why would people wanting to order school books from across the state of Texas stop calling because a motorcade was coming near her building?

It's actually quite simple Iacoletti, Hine goes on to say that after she went to the foyer she "went straight up to the desk because the telephones were beginning to wink" which reinforces her earlier statement that the lights went out.

Miss HINE. Yes; and I went straight up to the desk because the telephones were beginning to wink; outside calls were beginning to come in.
Mr. BALL. Did they come in rapidly?
Miss HINE They did come in rapidly.

the telephones were beginning to wink

Doesn't that imply that they were not winking prior to that?

John's question is solid;

"why would people wanting to order school books from across the state of Texas stop calling because a motorcade was coming near her building? "

You are not making any sense....

Finally, thanks for agreeing that "Iacoletti's" post of linking two disparate events was intentionally misleading.

Why, yes. Yes it does. That is the point. BTW, I wonder if you considered that the old analog phones were powered from the phone company's end office via the phone line. They weren't powered by building power. Therefore, the lack phonalicious winkie winke has no bearing as to the state of building power.

John's question is solid;

"why would people wanting to order school books from across the state of Texas stop calling because a motorcade was coming near her building?
"

Who said that all of the calls would have been incoming? For that matter, who said that any of the calls would by necessity have been incoming? And who said that the TSBD would have been constantly peppered by incoming calls?

No, the only one who is trying to be intentionally misleading is you.

John said;

Besides that, Deputy Mooney also mentioned that the power had been cut.

Mooney testified;

Mr. MOONEY - It was a push button affair the best I can remember. got hold of the controls and it worked. We started up and got to the second. I was going to let them off and go on up. And when we got there, the power undoubtedly cut off, because we had no more power on the elevator.

John Iacoletti's comment was factual
