Breaking a leg

[L Verge]

All the points that everyone has made (and will continue to make, no doubt) are good ones. However, it still goes back to my question of "What does it matter where he broke his leg?" Are we really so desperate for something to focus on that we have to keep rehashing something that will very likely never be proven?

Since I heard of the horse theory several years before Mr. Kauffman's book was published, I must admit to being saturated with the topic. I guess that's why I appear so grumpy about it to the rest of you.

I am much more interested in topics like: Who were the brains and money behind the original plot(s)? What role did the Canadian Cabinet play? Who were the New York Crowd? Who were the key players in Southern Maryland? Will we be able to identify all the players in the Secret Line that might have worked on the fringes of the plots? What about Jerry's theory on Johnson's involvement?

Those are some of the questions that I think deserve study and whose answers, if ever found, will have a much greater effect on understanding my favorite topic than worrying about a broken fibula.
