Lo,
There's a difference between forgetting history and refusing to obsess over the previous generation's conspiracy theories. For me, Kennedy was shot, same as Lincoln, and beyond that the various alternate theories are simply the stuff of documentaries and docu-dramas. I'm more interested in 9/11 conspiracy theories, since they involve a defining moment of my adult life, but similarly I'm not going to demand that folk born after it freak out about something that for them is simply old history.
Besides which, even if there was a Kennedy conspiracy, assuming I live to a reasonable age, sometime in my lifetime everyone involved will be dead and so the question will be as relevant theories about John Wilkes Booth.
