From Salon.com:
"A professional physicist and photo analyst for more than 30 years, he speaks earnestly and thoughtfully about his subject. "I am willing to stake my scientific reputation to the statement that Bush was wearing something under his jacket during the debate," he says. "This is not about a bad suit. And there's no way the bulge can be described as a wrinkled shirt."
I don't see how that could be a bullet-proof vest either. Its not a general area that is sticking out from the jacket like a vest would be, but instead just a line and a box.
NASA scientists "speaks earnestly and thoughtfully about the subject"? He is willing to " stake his scientific reputation " on it? amazing. This might actually Wash if this was 1976. You would have a hard time finding a device that big with a wire that thick today if you tried.
This is 2004. Technology has long since left a device that large behind. So much for the earnest and thoughtful analysis of an NASA scientist. I guess his reputation is left in shambles.
Welcome,
I would have to add that I would have an easier time believeing a NASA scientist if this were 1976, too. However, since Challenger, Columbia, the Hubble and the Mars Orbiter, NASA has kinda lost its alure.
Anyway, a wire this huge does seem damn unlikely.
