Joe,
While I am in the same boat as Paul, Paul does need to remember this thread:
OLBERS MANIFEST
This document provided to Helen Corbin was absolutely proven by Paul, Garry, and I to have been 100% fraudulent. Not a "possible fraud", but one which there was zero deniability. FAKE
MIke
I absolutely remember that thread, and I still stand by the fact that it's my judgment based on the things we found that the Olbers Manifest in Helen's Book was manufactured and is not accurate. What I believe I didn't do in that thread was cast blame or doubt on anyone - if I did, that was a mistake on my part because in the end I don't know the entire story.
It's one thing to prove a document is fake but quite another to place the blame for it on any one individual. I may know the person Helen received that manifest from, but I have no idea where that person got it from. Did they mfg. it themselves? Did someone else fake it and pass it along as proof? Did the forger sell it to someone who passed it to someone, etc...?
My feelings on the matter were posted a couple above this one and I'd like to leave it that.
