Whereas I do find Davel as annoying as a persistent wasp at a picnic, I do grudgingly admire his resolve in soldiering on in the face of adversity. If he would stop the hectoring tone of posts and try being less provocatively contrary in the hope of provoking distracting arguments then he'd be quite bearable. As it is, I think he's damn lucky to still be posting on this board as I'd have long lost patience with him. Credit to admin & the mods for persistently giving him a chance even thought he does appear to keep throwing it back in their faces.
As to this ridiculous attempt to wipe from the record that which has already been long accepted (namely that it's obvious due to the wording used and the timing of the press reports that the McCann family were independently told the same "jemmied/forced" story and simply regurgitated it - Trish Cameron even stumbling: "jammied... or whatever you call it" over the strange word she wasn't comfortable using. Absolutely no Chinese whispers at all, regardless of what davel claims), well it's scarcely worth engaging with.
Davel, you need to keep up to date, mate. This argument, even on the staunchest pro forums, has long moved on to "what they actually meant" as opposed to what they said, which is beyond doubt. You're flogging a long-dead and buried horse here and there is no debate or argument to be had.
