It is amusing that you LNers constantly accuse critics of just making stuff up, and then you do the same thing yourself. In other words, you might have read this somewhere and simply taken it for true rather than checking. Now at this late date you claim to not even remember where you picked up these nuggets. A few minutes searching the internet would be advisable before making such assertions. You have time enough to make all these posts, so you have time enough to do a little searching.
Yes and no Garry, not everything that has been said about the assassination by key people has been recorded on the web.
Remember I spent a lot of time in Dallas in the 80s. It is entirely possible I heard that Zapruder did acknowledge that he stopped filming from some one like Mary Ferrell - for example. I know Larry Harris has been in touch with Zapruder's daughter - it is possible that she had said something.
Anyway, the FACT is of course that he DID stop filming. Plain and simple.
So where is the first frame flash that all experts state must be there?

Oh absolutely I could be mistaken, but the comment was made in good faith. Again, this is not a book, nor a court of law, its an internet blog effectively.
Unlike you Garry - perhaps, I am no longer deep into this case. I was - very much so and probably did a lot more work and local research in Dallas and New Orleans than anyone on this forum, but these days, no it's a 50+ year old murder case that should have been put to bed in 1964.
The number of posts you make belies your statement. No one makes 200+ posts in a short period of time if he is not deep in the case.
And I checked with Mike Majerus and he said he did not have any direct quote from Zapruder stating he stopped filming, so Mike could not back me up either.
Put the shoe on your foot, Patrick, and imagine I had cited a statement but had nothing to back up the truth of the statement. Would you accept it? So you heard something a long time ago that you cannot verify, well, wouldn't it be better not to use that particular statement? How can you even be sure that what you heard is true if you can find no corroboration for it?
It is apparent also that more recent analysis with technology not available to the original investigators has confirmed that the shots were doable - probably over 8+ seconds if three shots and the SB Fact emerges as 100% realistic. Myers debunked the "acoustics evidence" almost beyond doubt.
Please, Patrick, the Single Bullet Fact? I have you admitting that the SBT cannot be proved, yet you insist on using "fact". Have you no shame at all?
