It seems to me that Al basically said "Jake, here’s a weird time hole. Do you want to save JFK because insert random musings and Jake just went “Fuck it, why not?”

The whole point of the book is exploring that subject.
Okay, good! I was a bit worried it just wouldn’t be visited. That’s fine then. Thank you
