  1. Timothy,
    Not sure that Hixson proved his point about P50 being a fake, awful lot of maybe’ and possibly!
    Fairly sure he has impugned the name of Lake with the barest shred of evidence.

    1. Timothy, as I understand it, Hixson is arguing that Lake did this as an inside joke, not as a way to con the masses.

    2. Hixson also suggested that Kraeling and Rostoffsteff were also good candidates as the forgers and should be examined as well.
