Thanks for taking the time to debunk this ridiculous book one more 
time. I don't suppose it will ever get debunked enough to just 
disappear. Well documented history refutes almost everything in this 
conspiracy story. But, one has to admit, conspiracies are usually 
fascinating to speculate about if they are detailed enough and have 
enough verisimilitude.
