    IMO, not much. the new agent seems to be a copy of the old. not much thinking that is new. einstein's definition of insanity was repeatedly doing the same thing but expecting different results. the fbi is doing the same thing. am i insane to hope for something good out of this?

    responding to litewaveryder i am close to this case and agree with you a little. this should not be a priority, and i don't think it is. but to suggest that lesser crimes should not be given attention because there are greater ones is a bit myopic. lawlessness breeds more lawlessness. i would...

    cooper took a dummy chute for his front. even an amateur would likely notice this and use it as storage for the money. the main he used was a pilot's emergency chute. very reliable and opens quicker when the ground pops up out of the dark to surprise you (i figure that coop had a wrist...

    there's always someone! even a novice would probably see a pack sewn shut with an x on it (evidence suggests cooper was not blind - skydiving scares the dogs). tina mucklow said he put it on like he'd done it every day. cooper knew to check the rigger card. i have jumped several times and did...
