Dear [redacted]:

Pursuant to our phone conversation today, it is my understanding that you have a client who claims to be D.B. Cooper. As I stated in our conversation, before any negotiations or discussions can take place, it is necessary that this office be assured that there is a strong possibility that your client is, in fact, D.B. Cooper.

In an effort to resolve this problem, I provide the following questions for your client to answer:

1) Did D.B. Cooper purchase his airline ticket from a man or a woman? And was that man or woman young or old?

2) Did D.B. Cooper stand or sit while waiting to board the airplane?

3) When D.B. Cooper boarded the airplane, was he among the first passengers to board, in the middle, or one of the last passengers to board?

4) Precisely where did D.B. Cooper sit in the airplane? Right or left side of the plane, window or aisle seat, in the front or the back of the airplane or towards the middle?

5) What were the sexes of any persons D.B. Cooper sat next to?

6) In precisely what manner did D.B. Cooper communicate his demands? And what was communicated?
