The 2 investigators I credit the most for solving this mystery are John Razimus and Paula Jedi.
Art Bell was a paranormal radio show host who asked people to call in with convincing stories that they are time travelers. The most convincing one was a guy named Rick from Mississippi who was helping Mad Man Marcum with his time travel experiments suggesting Marcum should send a message to himself in the past. Rick called again from Southern California as Mike from 2037. He didn't do a bad job with his time travel story. So he was given an 11 part interview with Art Bell as John Single Seven from 2063. He based a lot of the future on the "Demolition Man" movie.
John got the idea to fax Art Bell three times. The idea came from Mike Mitreski in a chat room. That's about the time I got into this.
John hired the Haber family. Larry the Disney Lawyer. Morey the IBM and cyber-privacy expert. Most likely Larry's son from which we get the "Steve Jackson Role-Playing Time Travel" elements. It was Morey that added the IBM part of John's story. Larry's wife's sister is married to Joel Kostuch who is a director and producer at Disney. Joel came up with John's background. Rochester, Minnesota, University of Florida, all that is Joel's background. EyesViewMedia is just down the street from the John Titor Foundation and they were the ones who faked the "Where is John Titor" documentary. Oliver Willabus, who is Larry's carpenter, has the official alias of "Oliver Williams" and signs all the legal documents for John and his Foundation. Art Haber, one of the brothers admitted the jist of this.
John later called in a lot as Oliver Williams who started to host the JohnTitorFoundation.Com and JohnTitor.Com websites. Who is John? He's somewhat of a genius who graduated from the South Dakota School of Mines and Engineering. He called into the Art Bell show as an actor. J.L.Glass, the comic-book writer, who also called in to Art Bell to play different roles was probably helping him with tips.
Finally, David "Boomer" Brin and Karen Haber, two of the most well known time travel writers were probably called in to consolidate the story to make a movie. David says "The Postman" was inspired by the John Titor story. This is yet unverified. Finally, the movie failed to be produced. John tried to do a few podcasts but he wasn't into it.
It was here that I think the Foundation was trying to continue the legend under John Titor's mother K. or Kay Titor. But that plan collapsed.
Joseph Matheny did come up with part of the John Titor story and the Live Action Role-Playing as if it was real. He refused to release his part of the story to the Foundation so that killed the movie project. He bragged about it later on a radio program where psychics were speculating about the future. I think it was Joseph's talented prop maker friend who may have been inspired by the GhostBusters props, who made the time machine.
---------------------------
Where did the name "John Titor" come from?
John comes from the characters "John Connor" from the "Terminator" movie and "John Spartan" from the "Demolition Man", John Single Seven's favorite movie.
Titor comes from two of the sisters who are married to Joel and Larry. Titshaw. That is a very unusual name so John would not have that name unless something like this was the case. .The Titor could refer to "Terminator" or "Time Traveler" as it sounds like a sped up way of saying it.
------------------------------
So where do I come in? I recognized what this was early. The time John Titor was active. I've been using the John Titor story to promote my political and spiritual agenda and to help you change the future.
Not meaning to be disrespectful or confrontational, but this isn't really a fact until you can share confirmable sources, and I don't see and references to that here except the obit, and the rest is just your words stated by you. I looked through the whole of this thread and if I missed your references my apologies.
Without verifiable references this doesn't really stand as evidence of anything other than your opinion based on your anecdotal hearsay. So I would have to say I challenge your assertion that it is solved and instead offer that you have a hypothesis about the story that has yet to be supported by evidence, except for the obituary. The Obit lends some credence to your assertion that Larry Haber's
present wife may have a last name of Titshaw. I can see how that could inspire the name Titor in some way but I am curious about LightSolitaire's assertion that she was Larry's Ex-wife. Have you confirmed this? Please don't Dox her either if you have. Not saying that you will, just suggesting to keep it civil as shes outlined her concerns considerably in her own assertions.
How long have former Ms. Titshaw and Larry been married? It's been 22 years since Johns story came out. Was he married to her then? That's an important piece to establish and connect together before being able to say that was the definitive inspiration. Maybe he didn't know her yet? Speculation at this point without more research. Same with his brother, was it during that time frame? Can you confirm it from them or via public records search?
Also Larry is pretty friendly and responsive, I have corresponded with him a couple times before on Facebook and in other media formats, he's only evasive about who "Kay Titor" is if directly asked. Have you approached him directly with your hypothesis or any of the details? Can you confirm if he was married to or knew Ms. Titshaw when she was Ms. Titshaw?
You said you were concerned about Lawsuit- if you are posting verifiable facts it would never stand in court. Especially public records. I wouldn't post names of children/Minors under 18 (it might endanger them) or give addresses. There are some nut jobs out there that would try and cause harm.
Can you say a more about where you came up with all this and what the sources for your evidence are?
Edited: A name that I inadvertently used incorrectly.
