Oswald took 10.2 seconds to fire all three shots.

[Royell Storing]

The echoing of the three muzzle blasts and the three supersonic "cracks" created a cacophony of sound which fooled many witnesses into believing two of the three shots were close together.

  You mention, "cacophony of Sound which Fooled many witnesses.................". This same claim therefore applies to Zapruder and the "jiggles" on his Zapruder Film. It is those Z Film "jiggles" which are the foundation for assigning Z Frames to each of the 3 shots. It is also these "jiggles" which NOW foster a 10+ Second duration for all 3 shots being fired. You can Not, "have your cake and eat it too".

I doubt that there is enough room for that. And I suspect that is why Max didn’t include the seat box in his demonstration. This might be worth further study. I will have to decide later. But first I think that you need to know that the photo you chose, CE 1301, is a recreation that the DPD arranged two days after the assassination. And the recreation isn’t exactly accurate. The window boxes are noticeably further west than where they were located during the assassination. Correcting this error would definitely reduce the space available for standing/kneeling.

FWIW, the corner of the tilted box is eight bricks over from the vertical wooden post.

Do you think the "Studebaker Exhibit J" photo is more accurate?

No, it looks like the same arrangement as CE1301 from a closer distance.

CE482 and CE715 and CE716 show portions of the window boxes before they were moved. Those let us gauge the distance they were positioned from the center post dividing the two windows.

I've already posted CE715.

Yes, and then you asked about the accuracy of a different one. Hopefully the difference is apparent.

You seem to be saying there was enough room for Oswald to sit uncomfortably on the box (one bun on / one bun off), but not enough room for him to stand near it.

Why would Oswald have set up the boxes on the floor and window sill to support a rifle aimed toward the triple underpass if he was going to fire the first shot downward to the street? That makes no sense.
