Hello, I discovered this webpage a few days ago. It is interesting to say the least. I am still a little skeptical that Paul was replaced, but I am keeping an open mind.
A lot of the photographic evidence does seem convincing. One thing I do have trouble with, however, is the height of Paul. It is stated on this site that all of the Beatles (at least pre-1966) were about 5' 11" (except Ringo?). What source does that come from? If the source was from an old public release, maybe Paul was listed as 5' 11" instead of, say, 6' 2" to make him seem less intimidating to the girls. In the Ed Sullivan pictures, although this would be hard to tell, John may have been wearing higher heels in his shoes so that he would look the same size as Paul, possibly because that would look better on TV if they were both the same size. Also, in some of the pictures where Paul appears taller, you don't see the Beatles feet, so you don't know if maybe Paul is standing on ground slightly higher or on his tippy toes at a given moment. I would just feel more comfortable judging his height in relation to the others he is standing with if I could see where his feet are in relation to the others. Also, in the comparison picture where Paul and Faul are holding the same bass, with the size of the bass being used as the scale for the rest of the picture to compare the heght of the two, it just "seems" like the picture of Paul is further away than the picture of Faul, hence making Faul look taller. I guess the bass is the same size, but if you look toward the floor, it looks like the camera is angled a little down on Paul, and more straight on for Faul, which could possibly make Paul look smaller than Faul (I'm not all that knowledgeable about photography, but just posing that as a possibility).
About the 60IF document...very interesting reading. As for Paul having irritable bowel syndrome, is there any other source that states Paul had this illness? Or did this only come from 60IF. I know there is the possibilty that he wore diapers, like in Help, but this is purely subjective. Just wondering if there is more evidence to support he had IBS. I thought I read that the 60IF was supposed to be released on the internet in 2002 with George Harrison's wishes. So is that when the information was actually released? How did people who knew about the Paul replacement theory know how to go about looking for this document?
Growing up I always just assumed all the Paul death clues were part of a hoax. I never took it seriously. But now, well, after looking at this site and examaning more clues I previously wasn't aware of I'm certainly more open to the possibilty that Paul was replaced. I'm also leaving open the possibilty that there is more to this story than we will ever know. Maybe Paul was not replaced and is still Paul, but something strange did happen that influenced his face change. Maybe the true explanation would seem so far-fetched that it is not even considered.
Thanks.
