Works on any of mine. In any case the rod was bent by a Dallas policeman
searching the room, not a reporter, and replaced the next day. You can see
the photo of the bent rod, taken the night of Nov. 22, 1963, in Myers'
WITH MALICE, pp. 100-101 chapter 3 (just pull it off your shelf, Mr.
Expert). The photo is Ft. Worth Star-Telegraph collection, and is now
housed in special collections at UT-Arlingon, TX.
More time travel. Except for the room being tossed by the searchers (bed
clothes they left are still in the center of the bed, it's just the way
Oswald left it.

I am on topic. The problem is that you have no idea what you are talking
about here, and I do. The same collection as the photo above has one taken
of the windows along the side of Oswald's room, at the same time, Nov. 22,
evening:

Note that Oswald's windows are closed with horizontal Venetian (Persian)
metal blinds, with slats that fold flat. These are popular in Texas
because the metal keeps heat reflected out. Inside that, Oswald has see
through curtains, AND then inside, a set of heavier non-see-through
curtains.

In Texas, the cheapest solution to air conditioning problems is totally
infrared proof windows with metal blinds AND at least one set of heavy
curtains.

They were rare. And still are, on North Beckley.

Nope. Stop pulling assumptions out of your ass. There is no light 10 feet
away from 1026 N. Beckley. And Oswald's room is on the SIDE of the house at
ground level, anyway. It does not face the street. There are some tours on
You Tube, which I will leave to you. See end of minute 12 just before 13

There is a photo of the room, and the metal blinds are still in place.
There is modern footage of the side of the house (with air conditioner)
and Oswald's room about 1 minute into the video here:

Tell you Oswald's schedule? He works 8 AM to 4:30 at the TSBD, though
there is no time-clock to punch. He never misses a day of work in 7 weeks.
I have given you sunrise and sunset times end of November, at 7 AM and
5:30. He takes the bus, gets to the rooming house around 5, once played
with the house owner's grandkids earlier in November (this may be the
weekend he stays home do to the Paine house party). He doesn't hog the
bathroom, which is good because it serves 5 roomers. It's not a boarding
house, so food is up to him. He drinks a lot of milk and eats meals out.
He cleans the tub like a good marine. He listens to a short wave radio,
and probably knows Morse. Nobody ever hears him get into an altercation or
complain about anything, including light or curtains.

It's a TOPIC YOU raised-- now choke on it. If stray light from the poor
1963 street lights managed to make its way into the space between 1026 N.
Beckley and the house south, turned to penetrate the window class and the
metal slat blinds of Oswald's room, it would still have had to pass two
sets of curtains, one heavy, then Oswald's eyelids. By the time it makes
it to Oswald's retina to keep him up, I'm dubbing it THE MAGIC PHOTON. And
giving credit to you, Anthony Marsh. For giving us The Vampire Oswald,
from New Orleans; O.H.Lee Of The Dead.
"Blah! Blah! When they svitched coffins with Kennedy in one of them, it
vas ME vas in ze OTHER vun!! Blah!"
And now we know why they dug him up in 1981. It was just to see if he was
still in there.
