friend referred to) and still exists in our encyclopedias that if we could
sit on the star Rigel with a very powerful telescope focused on the
earth we would be able to see President Kennedy at the moment he
was assassinated.

Rigel is 860 light-years distant. A hypothetical observer on a planet orbiting Rigel who was examining the Earth with a powerful telescope right now would see the Earth as it looked in the 12th century.
Lessans was an idiot and/or a liar.
Find one encyclopedia which makes that claim. Go ahead. I dare you.
FIND IT OR ADMIT THAT LESSANS WAS LYING. If Lessans wasn't lying, then you should have no difficulty at all in finding an example of an encyclopedia saying what Lessans insists was a common claim.
I say Lessans was lying. By all means, feel free to prove me wrong.

Never would I say any such thing about my father. He wasn't a liar, and I'm tired of dealing with people who have the gall to even suggest something like that. You didn't even know this man. Be careful what you say because it will come back to bite you, even if you're here anonymously.
