It is an amazing experience, and there is so much information presented at this museum. It is really too bad that not everyone will get a chance to see it, virtually just doesn't cut it.<br /><br />I mean getting a chance to see what the room that they stayed in, and the "spot" (although it's removed) where he was shot is just something you can't translate to online or into words.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10175486897439267229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-25926303238913501542009-07-17T20:11:51.693-04:002009-07-17T20:11:51.693-04:00You and andrewbwatt are right on.

I looked out the window on the 6th floor of the book depository. I listened to a 20 lecture on the corner by a conspiracy theorist. I wish I would have had my video camera for that one.<br /><br />Then I read two books on the subject. <br /><br />You gotta see it, be there, feel it and witness the intensity from the people around you. It just doesn't compare to a text book.BKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12880121067443145641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-6774304989332431112009-07-17T20:07:12.366-04:002009-07-17T20:07:12.366-04:00Maybe we can put a school in a bus, is what I mean...Maybe we can put a school in a bus, is what I meant.
