I have been told Im wasting my time by trying to nail Smith (arent we all?)
I think you you will find me from here on out on any thread that deals with a hippopotamus.
however the ebay deal reminds me of one of my many unproven theories
I think its possible that Smith bought the Kenyan BC from someone ...and he doesnt know for sure if it is real or not.
Its clear to me that Smith’s Africa story is not true
(I really thought the Africa story was the best part of the whole deal...its what sold me on the BC in the first place as it seemed plausible)
Its hard for me to imagine Smith putting this thing together then trying to get rich and famous off of it...and Im not sure Smith is smart enough to make a fake BC. But if he bought it or it was given to him that accounts to his putting so much energy into trying to prove its real by looking at a lot of arcane data.
He cant simply submit it to an expert or his fraud will be uncovered, but he wants the people on the internet to prove that it is real. I think in his heart of hearts he knows its bogus though.
Just a theory though ....another theory is Smith is a psychopath
I see your line of thinking, but it has one big flaw.
The document and affidavit have been submitted to the courts.
It is in their hands, and will be judged on their own merits...someday...I hope.
Until that time, what I see is not him defending the documents, but himself.
Its seems a select few have gone about defaming him over his past, and hence use the vehicle of the document, to prove that because its fake (in their estimation), he is fake.
I have stated before that the documents in the courts hands will stand by themselves, so the effort is more, IMO to prove that in this instance, he was a stand up guy. I have also stated that these same people want to kill the messenger, and ignore the message, fact is, like it or not, the message is out of his hands, its either real or not.
If you look at what this young man has done since the days of bad behaviour, which by the way, he paid for, both in cash and time, note that he did not run away, but stood up and paid the time for the crime. But more, he is continuing his education, high above many on the web right now. He has not been in trouble for a long time. Yet the sins of the past dog him. So, he proves each of you wrong, as often as possible, without divulging information on the advice of council. I often wonder if your just messing with him because your bored, or like a good argument. Some of you are not even from this country, and have no vested interest in the outcome of any of this. I see some bash America relentlessly, and really have no clue what we are all about.
So my observation, is that this is not about the document, its about Lucas Smith. It’s not about him, its about the documents. IMO you need to accept it, leave him alone, and move on. The documents MAY never see the light of day in a court of law.
