Thanks! The documentary does not provide much new information if one has read Cheri Seymour's "The Last Circle" and Kenn Thomas' and Jim Keith's "The Octopus: Secret Government and the Death of Danny Casolaro", but the interviews are interesting and it is nice to be able to put faces to the names (which are usually "Nichols") and see and hear the original material. The re-enactments are mercifully few and comparatively unobtrusive. I think Casolaro's theory of eight people ruling the world is a conspiratorial fantasy, although some of those he names were very influential indeed.

A-and they have the one and only Michael Riconosciuto! A certified genius who, after decades in prison, immediately raises hell once again! And whom I imagine at some point in the future playing a game of Tarot in hell with his friend from Tacoma Fred Crisman as well as with Reeve Whitson, Ronald Hadley Stark and Oswald Le Winter...
