Have you ever been to Dealey Plaza. I was there back in the 1980's. It is very interesting and facinating place for a history buff. When I was there they were just starting the museum.
I believe most historians now conclude that Oswald shot JFK from the sixth floor of the Depository building. All the new technology and investigative science points to the shots coming only from the direction of the sixth floor. Bugliosi and Posner both covered this in detail. Kennedy and Connelly were both struck by the same bullet. Connelly was sitting below and to the left of Kennedy in a jump seat, and the trajectory line can be traced backwards from Connlley, through Kennedy, and straight back up to the sixth floor where Oswald was.
My husband and I visited Dealey Plaza in the late 80s. I will tell you that that visit dramatically and surprisingly effected me. We weren't attempting to "recreate" the crime, but my husband stood where McGruder did his filming, I climbed behind the fence to see the angle of a possible second gunman and we both stood directly over the "X" in the middle of the road. Like I said, I was very surprised that it effected me like it did.
We spent so much time there that darkness fell before we were actually aware of the time. Our hotel was across the tracks from Dealey and we had to walk back. It was actually a little spooky; we opted to walk much further around to the hotel rather than go under the underpass where Kennedy's car had fled.
I was also surprised at the massive amount of room and trains that were just below the fence...you know where the "policeman" was purported to have been. This isn't evidencary, but I'm telling you I could've hid an elephant for a few minutes down there AND slipped him in a box car!!!
