Because I will not install Real Player on my new computer and screw it up AGAIN.

Do you trust windows media player? That is the one with Terri's father.

Yes. I've seen that one before and I played it again from your link. It appears to show some response to stimuli. If it's consistently repeatable, then it would show that Terri is still inside.

The difficulty with that is that the court has said that these incidents aren't repeatable. It says the Schindlers have taken film the one time that it appears Terri is responding and discarded the rest of the time when she doesn't. Actually, as far as I know they haven't said so explicity, but they might as well have said so with their findings of fact.

I don't know what to believe from the facts I've been shown. I'm sure Michael Schiavo could film a tape of Terri not responding if he could selectively edit, too. You know he could.

None of us are there in her room. We're mostly hearing arguments from hired guns, or those with an agenda far bigger than Terri, on both sides of the fence. Of that, I have little doubt.

I've often said on these threads that the best solution is for Michael to divorce Terri and let her parents take care of her. He was offered a million dollar incentive to do that today. Why he persists, I don't know. Most of the common reasons offered on these threads don't make much sense after 15 years. My best guesses are either that he's being co-opted and funded by some euthanasia groups, or that he truly believes Terri is gone and she would have wanted to be un-tubed and he's fighting for that.

My guess is the former.
