Ed Forum no more?

Not just a technical glitch?

Supposedly they were paid up for a while.

How sad if the site went down, before it could be arranged for the Smithsonian to archive content. 

I agree that a lot of valuable research has been posted on the EF over the years, but I must admit that I won't shed any tears if the EF is gone. If this has happened, the moderators brought it on themselves.

Lance, I happened to be reading some threads there earlier this week and that Niederhut fella is one of the nuttiest personalities I've ever seen! Could you imagine being that guy's patient and not knowing what he was really up to in the Internet in his spare time?

Yeah, that's why I seriously thought about contacting the Medical Board. The disconnect between being a "Harvard-trained practicing psychiatrist" (as he constantly reminds us) and the utterly wild stuff he posts makes Lee Harvey Oswald look positively normal.

When Don Jeffries began posting his Zionism theories as the "connection" between 9/11, the JFKA, the USS Liberty, the RFKA and who knows what else...to plaudits...well, P.U.

The EF-JFKA won't be missed. A shallow grave is good enough.

James DiEugenio should be ashamed of himself, actually giving credence to Joan Mellen's whack-a-doodle USS Liberty crackpot-isms.

Niedernut is beneath contempt.

Looks like I am the first refugee from the EF. Though if it comes back to life I will continue to post there. It went down in the middle of my debates with Niederhut over the “jet effect”, Hofeling, Davidson and Josephs over the limo stop/Zapruder film alteration. As of a few days ago, Josephs informed me that he had me on “ignore” but then continued to harangue me via personal messaging. I actually put Hofeling on ignore just so I wouldn’t have to scroll through his lengthy posts which were often largely repeated. But I would still look at his specific responses so I could rebut them. Jim D. had me on ignore but I forget the reason.

Two things that I noticed about many EF participants is that they are far more interested in proving Oswald was innocent than objectively looking at the facts to determine what possibly could have happened and many believe that JFK (and by extension anyone in the Kennedy family) was almost a Christ-like figure who was going to unilaterally withdraw from Vietnam and usher in an era of world peace.

I must be doing it wrong. I can't get any of the threads to show, or does it just show topics?

It's often just the root page that gets archived, sadly enough.
