Although I didn't want any battles going on about Robert, I have asked him more than 4 times on DZ to prove things Coop said were wrong. he only responds by stating he talks to him frequently. he likes to play the sympathy game, but DZ finally caught up to him by warning him about personal attacks. something he constantly claims is directed at him.
I asked him a while ago if Skipps name will be on the free issue, he replied yes. I'm still not sure what he is doing with the book, or why it's being taken out of sales. I thought it was because of Skipp, or someone else involved who no longer wants any part of the book. this would cause the book to be redone once again. the cost would not justify it remaining in sales. I guess we will find out sooner or later.
Well ... the only thing that matters (to me) is the truth of his case: that KC was Cooper. I think RMB has not assembled a consistent, truthful case. Moreover, every time one of RMB's so-called facts or witnesses is examined it turns out RMB has misrepresented the facts (and people's actual testimony)! And I am being charitable in this! The reality of RMB's soap opera is probably worse than any of us knows! Blevins has also made it 100% clear this is not just his work but the work of a number of people who call themselves Adventure Books of Seattle, a literal subsidiary of something called: R & G Housecleaning! RMB keeps calling it an "Investigation"! It appears to me to be a 'Committee of the Absurd' which has no real direction or charter, but who keep throwing allegations and personal attacks and claims against a wall, hoping something will stick and grab the attention of what RMB calls "the wage earner sheeple of Amerika'! This isn't an investigation. It's a circus of the absurd!
I just hope everyone here is well-enough informed to know this is not the first time something like this has happened in so-called 'Cooperland'. The Myers-Dvorak debacle over Teddy Mayfield was one previous example. Paul ________ at Vancouver also supporting Kenny was another example. The whole Duane Weber fiasco is another. It goes on and on and on. Marla?
What happens if some day some Cooper twenties actually do turn up in some attic in some old house in Ohio? Then Cooper romantics will be off on one more frantic chase. I don't see that scenario as any more far-fetched than claiming Teddy Mayfield or Kenny Christiansen were DB Cooper?
NEW!: does anyone know how Kenny pronounced his own name 'Christ'-iansen' vs. 'Christiansen' vs. 'Christian-sohn'? How do Lyle and the other 'Christiansen(s) in that family pronounce their own name? RMB thought I was kidding when I brought Kenny's speech phonology up. I wasn't! Why? Because another "Christiansen" born and raised in MN brought the matter up. Remember Cooper had a "midwestern" accent according to Carr, which is the same as saying "no accent at all" as judged by Tina, Flo, and the crew who heard him talk. I don't have the answer - I don't even pretend to have the answer to this. But another "Christiansen" wonders, and that got me to wondering ... 'christ' iansen', two syllables with a soft 'i' as in 'cyst' in the first syllable 'christ'. ? But, RMB doesn't want to get into that - he says it's self-evident to him and should be to everyone else. He may be correct but how does anyone know unless someone asks? Not everything is a plot and a conspiracy!(funny)
