So here's my contribution. Had a couple of bucket list stops while traveling last week. Got to go stand at this spot and was pretty awed to be there.
Forum is pretty uneventful today..

It's Dealey Plaza and I was standing right below the Grassy Knoll
No, that's the wrong building. Oswald was allegedly shooting from the building to the left, right-most window, second from the top. In 1963 the trees were much shorter and did not obstruct his shot.

Been there once myself. Amazing piece of history. Did you buy anything from the conspiracy DVD peddlers? 
No, it was later in the afternoon and pouring rain on and off. Museum was closed and not many people around at all, which was pretty cool.Been there once myself. Amazing piece of history. Did you buy anything from the conspiracy DVD peddlers?
If you go into the museum you can head to the corner of the left-most building in the above picture. You can't get close enough to the window though. There is a mock rifle setup on a tripod that is representative of where he stood and shot from. You can't get within 10 feet of the windows and you get no real understanding of the vantage point from it. Kind of a letdown but I guess this adds more mystery.
250ft away, shooting at a moving target? Child's play for snipers of Golmud Rail.
I've been known to snipe someone in Golmud from Metro; a little tricky I know, but I shoot after I blink. Shooting on the Exhale is for sissies.
