This is Daryll K. Lathers speaking. I've been away from the computer for a while as I was having my '95 Ford show truck painted which required a lot of preparation and a lot of $. The original color was Cayman Green (dark blue/green). Where I live in Upstate New York the winters are rough on paint so I figured the job was justified. Don't ever try this yourself unless you've had previous experience because you can easily ruin the job. Take it to a professional and do it right. As I was doing this I was also thinking about the Zodiac and I've come up with some new ideas which I'll share with you all.
On page #144 of the Zodiac paperback, the one with the Golden Gate Bridge in the fog at night, the Zodiac gave us a thirteen symbol and letter cipher. He said his name was in the cipher........? You can easily make out Herb Caen or Arthur Leigh Allen. Sleuths don't be fooled!!!! This is much too simple and much too brief to figure out. Somebody, the Zodiac himself, is trying to shed the light on someone else and it follows a pattern that we've seen before, more than once. Do you remember how Ralph Spinelli and Don Cheney would shift our attention towards Arthur Leigh Allen? This is more of the same. The Zodiac didn't or does not want to be caught because he enjoys killing too much! I think we are closer than we think to knowing the real identity of the killer. I don't think that Cheney or Spinelli had the brains or especially the patience to write the long rambling messages that the Zodiac did. But - we probably have mentioned the Zodiac's name in our conversations and didn't know it. Looking for patterns, I think that this is the best shot that we have had in all our conversations. There is just one more word that might lead us to the killer ----- titwillow.
