Get to work, Jim
In reading Dave's post about Jim's excellent new book, I was reminded of Jim's project to document the "then and now" of famous locations associated with the assassination. This is an area of history that I am greatly interested in, and so I cannot wait for Jim to finish this book so that we can all read it. Issues like "where exactly was Souper's Hill amd what does it lpok like now" are fascinating to me. I would suggest that Jim quit his job and get to work on this book, pronto.

I've been trying to figure out how to earn a living at this Lincoln Assassination stuff. I am very fortunate to be part of a team and have the best partner in these endeavors. About 4 years ago, I emailed Rich with a question and boy oh boy, what a long and winding road we have traveled. We just always remember, it's not the destination, but the journey.

The next book was due to come out towards the end of the year but it may be much sooner than that.
Jim is caught between time periods channeling Booth and the Grateful Dead. I am constantly having to edit out hidden Neil Sedaka verses from our work.
Just remember, Rich, breaking up is hard to do.

We will be the first presentation after lunch. Enjoy the luncheon punch  but don't have more than two cups, we don't need any overdoses. We will do a combined psychodelic light show with a presentation on the odd simalarilities between Jerry Garcia and the Booth mummy.

I am very much looking forward to the conference. I hate that I couldn't make it this year. Laurie, can you tell us who any of the other speakers will be?

That sounds great. I can't wait.
