What’s Going on in Dealey Plaza?

|

And how many posts can I put up today with questions as the headline?

A reader writes:

My wife reports there is a old caddy there with the top down and they are measuring something. Is there some kind of JFK recreation going on?

I picked up the telephonic device on my desk and called over to the Sixth Floor Museum to ask if they knew anything about it. The gentleman there said he thinks “the Discovery Channel” or somebody is shooting something down there, but he wasn’t sure. It has nothing to do with the museum.

Then I turned to the Dallas Film Commission, but the woman there informed me that nobody filed for a permit to shoot in Dealey Plaza today. There’s always the chance that someone is filming without having the permit, of course.

So: mystery unsolved.  Anybody know?

UPDATE: Thanks to Liza at the Sixth Floor Museum for chiming in the comments that it’s actually a National Geographic production at work in the plaza today. Should someone tell them they’ve apparently not got the proper permit?
