Reply #8: That's correct. That is the prevailing, supportable theory.

The author who wrote a supressed book documenting this has proven, beyond any doubt in my mind, that's exactly what happened. The evidence is overwhelming.

When the NTSB held their notorious public hearings in Baltimore, the FBI put out an APB for that author two days before the hearings began so as to prevent him from appearing. They charged him with stealing evidence because he acknowledged in his book that one of the investigative team members gave him a small swatch of material from one of the seats--material which was stained the same color orange that is emitted by a specific type of rocket fuel--and which he had analyzed to prove that's precisely what it showed.

It was a cover-up of major dimensions.
