(20,453 posts)42. Oh, how I WISHED I had taken the extra day to see him at that conference, Octafish...
Though, I've heard him PLENTY of times here - http://blackopradio.com
I missed an the opportunity to also meet you, as I discovered when meeting/talking with another great researcher, Lisa Pease... (BTW, she spoke very highly of YOU!)
We've lost some important professional researchers into the assassination of JFK this year, as John Judge has passed more recently. Yet, there are second and third generations who continue, based on the excellent work so many have done.
About Mark Lane

He was a member of the New York State Legislature and was the only public official arrested as a Freedom Rider in Mississippi.
Mark Lane is the author of eleven books in addition to screen plays and plays.
Citizen Lane, his autobiography, was published June 1, 2012 by Lawrence Hill Books, a division of the Chicago Review Press.
Last Word: My Indictment of the CIA in the murder of JFK, published by Skyhorse Publishing, is his most recent work on the Kennedy Assassination.
