    Welcome to the forum chatenor,

    With all due respect, you can't expect someone will resume the whole controversy to you the moment you ask one of your first questions without you having gone through a minimum of homework. I'm probably as newbie as you are on this forum but read a bit before entering. Now if you want a quick idea, here a link to the book review which started the discussion with so many pages of interesting although sometimes repetitious comments.

    Cheers,
    Hercule Poirot

      That's an excellent reply, Hercule; thank you.

        Maybe Belinda can get them made up!

        But then I'd have to change my name to "Rip Van Winkle"

        There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

          Hi Gut.

          I thought of Belinda immediately!

            I take it because the souviner shop has now closed that all this shawl business has come to an end I'm just pleased it wasn't an attempt to extract money from the general public but a proper scientific investigation into the ripper murders.

Has anybody pointed out that even if the provenance of the shawl is reliable and even if Kosminski wanked over it, that doesn't prove that he was Jack the Ripper. Indeed, given the circumstances, it could be argued that it is more likely that Kosminski did wank over this prostitute's shawl than not. Plus, what is the consensus now about the diary? I have always thought that the evidence of the diary and Feldman's book was conclusive. Has anybody actually proved otherwise?

                      Love them. Actually, I can't stand helpless people who don't do a little honest work before they ask others for help. It's probably because it's so noticeable these days in Asia where men (especially) can't do anything for themselves...I mean, nothing.

                        You won't find any Kosminskis in Asia.

                          That's right it was never about the money when a builder teams up with a scientist to solve a 125 year old murder mystery they can only be doing it for the benefit of the general public it's just a shame they didn't have the time to buy a calculator and get the maths side of it correct.

                            I might have missed it but has Mr Edwards issued an apology yet I think he should do a lot of people who might have had a lot to offer to this case have been put of and will never contribute purely because of this book.
