Kinsey's studies indicated that the average American has intercourse 5,500 times, leaving coitus with procreative intent at a mere 1%. Dr. S. Leon Israel of the University of Pennsylvania believes that this is ten times too high-that conception is specifically planned in no more than one incident of coitus out of a thousand.

Shaw's law yers also noted that Russo said in the TV interview only last month that he did not know a Lee Harvey Oswald. Why had he changed his story? Simple.
