Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
The whole deal with Diana has to do with her fame ... ordinary folks are allowed to die peacefully, and they quickly slip into oblivion ... perfect; the way it should be. But ... when the rich and famous die ... well, we all know what happens ... hype and bs theories (if it is a rock star or a movie star, drugs have to be involved; it's part of the tabloid scenario) ... "When beggars die there are no headlines seen,/The tabloids themselves blaze forth the death of princesses."
I think that life is much less complicated when one is a nobody ... mmm, that brings to mind a lttle more poetry:
"I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us - don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know.
How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
Feel free to wax humorous on the last line

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
Since we are waxing lyrical i think this is quite apropriate:
Presentiment is that long shadow on the lawn
Indicative that Suns go down. - Emily Dickinson

Blood tests allegedly proving the drunkenness of the driver Henri Paul were deemed "biologically inexplicable" by a toxicologist. A British crash expert found that Diana's seat belt had not been working. And so on.

This link below explains a bit more about the verdict which blaims Henri Paul and the Paparazzi for "Unlawful killing" ;

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
Check out how many conspiracy theories there are about the JFK assassination. Nobody wants to believe that a deranged little man could murder one of the most important men in the world. So we get all these conspiracy theories based on mere coincidences. Think about Oliver Stone's film. Oswald was a decent shooter, and he could have and did get off three shots in less than ten seconds. Science and modern forensic analysis have all but proved he was the only shooter.
If you are running from others in a car going 80 or 90 miles per hour - and you may have had a drink or two, the chances are that your reflexes and perception are not going to be as sharp as usual. Also, I don't want to make any enemies, but conspiracy theories are the last refugue of the immature and uneducated mind.

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
O.K. but sometimes a "conspiracy theory" is only deemed so by those who don't want to accept an alternative to their belief.

A 'conspiracy theory' is just that-a theory, until someone proves it.
Show us some proof, not opinions or wild imaginings. Until then the available evidence stands. And available evidence isn't a theory.

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
And that's the rub Gordon, they will find numorous you tube video's or conspiracy websites, I have however to see any real proof to any of the most popular theory's.

If you, BG and me spent a few minutes together I'm sure we could come up with yet another good 'conspiracy theory', Jaysay.
We know at least 18 people on Accyweb would be ready to believe it.
