Zodiac

         As I was talking to Ricardo Gomez I mentioned that there might be more to that 340 symbol cipher than I realized. Just the fact that he used letters and symbols, alternating back and forth, seems to tell me that maybe, using just the letters, whole sentences could appear. The same might be true with just the symbols. Otherwise , why would he alternate? I often got the feeling, while I was solving the cipher back in September 2012, that some of the symbols and/or letters were put there just to confuse.

         The possible fact that he might be a member of law enforcement always was in the back of my mind. Especially the story about the tape of the Zodiac's voice being in the Vallejo Police Department always made me wonder. I said to Ricardo that it was too bad that we lost Nancy Slover, who was about my age, to cancer. I would have liked to talk to her about her short conversation with the Zodiac. A voice graph would be a very handy tool in catching the killer. The fact remains that if there was a tape of the conversation with Slover, the person who got rid of it would be very close to the VPD building.

         I also mentioned that there had to be a real strong reason that Mageau left the area. He almost had to know who the Zodiac was or is and the same might be true of Darlene's sisters. For these people to be quiet for so long seems very strange. Murder is murder and the fact that it is a horrible crime doesn't fade away with time.
