Jim Fetzer has put all the videos of the speeches in Santa Barbara into one article for easy access.

I know that folks are quite famliar with me and Jim Fetzer, but the others who spoke- Phil Nelson, John Hankey, Peter Janney, and Larry Rivera- did excellent jobs. You should listen to them. Phil Nelson laid out the case against LBJ, while John Hankey did the same for George HW Bush. Did you know that George Bush skipped the inauguration of Richard Nixon just to see LBJ off at the airport? And that was true even though Nixon was Bush's father's protoge' and was going to make him Republican Chairman and then Ambassador to the UN. It goes to show that when you spill blood together, it bonds you for life. 

Peter Janney spoke on the murder of Mary Pinchot Meyer, and it was an extension of his book, including his face to face encounter with William Mitchell, the true murderer. Just think: it was a case in which the real murderer appeared at trial as a witness for the prosecution. If it were fiction, it would be a brilliant screenplay. 

And, Larry Rivera spoke about Buell Frazier. That's right, Buell Frazier, the guy who drew an arrow to Oswald and said it was Lovelady even though the guy is wearing Oswald's clothes. And, Frazier had to have known it having driven Oswald to work that morning. And what about the bull shit with the package? My impression is that Buell Frazier was a scared 19 year old who was pressured into saying what they wanted to hear. But, listen to Larry Rivera speak on him. 

This was undoubtedly the best of the 50th anniversary commemorations, and thankfully, we have it now for all time. The work of getting the presentations recorded was done by Jim Fetzer and Lorien Fetzer, and I thank them both.
