"A muddle not a fiddle."<br /><br />Hayes's notes are a disorganised dog's breakfast of interpolations and additions. He also quit that job only months later and went off to retrain in an entirely different field and do something entirely different for the next ten years. Then he has to pitch up in court and give evidence about what he did in something that must have seemed like another life by then.<br /><br />But he comes over as an arrogant so-and-so, and rather than say clearly what he does or doesn't remember, he's permanently on his high horse pontificating as the Great Expert. Instead of "I don't remember" we get "I can't help you with that" and similar phrases.<br /><br />The whole thing looks extraordinarily suspicious and for a forensics laboratory to produce paperwork so lacking in provenance is absolutely disgraceful, but I think actually this is not the issue with PT/35b. The issue is the metallurgy.Rolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17849975010197698907noreply@blogger.com
