I am reminded of the concept of the 'stand-in', the body double, as in movies or theatre. People accept that 'the star' is the one having the sword fight, or jumping out a window. The subtle differences are not noticed due to long shots, much surrounding 'action' and the gullibility of the audience, enveloped in what they think is the story.

I have read No Treason several times when I was big into Constitutional Law, Spooner is the best American thinker by far.

I have been wondering for years now what really happened at the Philadelphia Convention and was signed in secret. There was no meeting notes taken which is odd and non standard. I read Patrick Henry was invited and declined and later a reporter asked why and he said; "I smell a rat".

You have my supreme gratitude for further readings to solve this mystery. Thank you!
