I look forward to reading your research.
The JBS is a dying organization, since it is, as you say, stuck in the 1960s.
You will likely be attacked, as you already have, but you are defending yourself well.
Mr. Robinson has already weeded the kookier JBSers off this site, but there are still a few around, as you'll see.

Sinkspur: Thanks for your favorable comments. However, I would like to go on record as opposing "weeding out" any JBS members or supporters from this site unless they egregiously violate rules of etiquette -- and even then I would be extremely cautious.
Unorthodox opinions deserve to be aired fully. As our founding fathers realized, ideas cannot be suppressed without running the risk of purging good and true (but unorthodox) thoughts.
Also, you have to understand the utter shock produced by evidence I cite in my messages. Most Birchers have never confronted ANY data from sources they heretofore approved, (such as FBI under Hoover).
Even though the JBS describes itself as an "educational" organization, it has been meticuously careful about NOT bringing to members attention any data which contradicts their dogma...including
(1) the fact that the JBS paid $400,000 to Elmer Gertz in a historical libel case that took 14 years of litigation and appeals to resolve.
(2) that Robert Welch's wife, Marian, terminated her relationship with the JBS because of disagreement over the direction the Society was taking under its new leadership
