I just wanted to add, I just read a great cold case book called "This Night Wounds Time", which had the following great quote:
"Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, via his creation Sherlock Holmes, once said, "As a rule, the more bizarre a thing is the less mysterious it proves to be. In other words, as William of Occam first put forth in the 14th century hypothesis known as "Occam's Razor," if two or more cometing theories exist to explain a given action, outcome, or event, more often than not, the theory that is the least complicated will prove to be the correct one."
Occam's Razor has long been a favorite of mine.
Question: in applying Occam's Razor to 3MW, where does that leave us? What is the least complicated theory which might explain what happened in Springfield the night of the sixth and seventh of June in 1992?
