Thanks Norse I appreciate that. As message boards go(!) you seem to be a genuine and interesting poster too, who sticks with it and keeps his mind around the details (like the "38 hole" in the Rambler roof, for instance.) I enjoy your posts. And I'm in the minority (HUGELY) lets face it, with this hoax stuff despite my convictions AND suspicions.
I may have already sidetracked things here but I won't push it too far; I think "motive" is one for another thread, where people know they're coming through the looking-glass into topsy-turvy hoax land. I'll start a thread.

You're very welcome - and thanks!

I'll have a look a the motive thread - and see if I can't find something to disagree with there; we can't have too much of this agreement business, you know, it gets boring!

great post Smithy - and a great series of articles on crack-proof. As a fellow Brit I am also familiar with Pitman shorthand - I used to work for the company (although I know nothing of the actual theory/practice) and it got me thinking that if the British connection to Z is correct then he almost certainly would have used Pitman instead of Greggs if he trained in the UK. This led me to the following picture, which has obvious similarities to both the Halloween 'ranch' symbol and also the Bates 'Z' . Smithy, any chance you can get your wife to look at the Halloween one (if she hasn't already) and see if anything clicks?
