      That exhibit shows portions of two different P.O. box applications,
neither actually supporting your claim, Ralph. It's unknown who was listed
on the relevant application, as explained here:

      That's not what the Dallas postal inspector said:

     So the rifle was shipped back to Klein's. Whew, what a relief. 

Ralph Cinque:

What??? So, we're supposed to go by what Harry Holmes said, an obvious apologist for the official story?

Look: If there was a PO Box application which included the name Alek Hidell you know darn well they would have published it immediately. The fact that they didn't tells you that it didn't exist, and apparently they decided not to fake one.

And let's be crystal: when they first announced this scenario, they overlooked the delivery issue completely. They just said that Oswald had a P.O.Box and Oswald picked it up. They didn't even think about the problem of it being sent to A. Hidell. It sailed right over their heads. They didn't begin to address it until skeptics like Mark Lane started barking. 

And what about Oswald? Do you think it sailed over his head? If he ordered a rifle under the name A. Hidell, wouldn't he have made it a point to get that name on his P O Box? But, how could he do it? To get a P O Box, you have to sign for it. That's S-I-G-N  as in signing your signature. 

So, he takes out a box under the name of Lee Harvey Oswald. Nobody ever said it was the box of Alek Hidell. Then, he decides to add the name Alek Hidell? He can't just go into the Post office as Lee Harvey Oswald and tell them to add the name Alek Hidell. LHO can't add someone else's name by himself. So, LHO couldn't do it alone. And Alek Hidell certainly couldn't do it alone either. He certainly couldn't go in there and tell them, "Add me to the PO Box of Lee Harvey Oswald." So, both would have to be there. Both would have to do it. They would have to do it together. But, how was that going to happen when there was only one of him?

This cooks your goose, Jean. So, get out the cranberry sauce because the battle is over. And you lost.
