And the experts that have examined the tape have explained what that
really shows (hint: what you've described isn't it).

And you can feel free to believe conspiracy nuts.  But when deciding
who to believe, I take into account many things, including the
credibility of the sources.  The findings of the *independent*
investigator and the *independent* expert witnesses are very clear and
credible.  If all these people are involved in a conspiracy, it's
possibly the largest one in history -- and such a well-maintained
conspiracy that none of them have blabbed yet?  Sure, I believe that.
And if *you* believe that I've got some swampland in Saudi Arabia to
sell you...
