As a matter of fact, apparently, there is a part of "no" that Melvin Dummar doesn't understand
Melvin is the guy who famously (he says) gave Howard Hughes a lift back to the Dunes Hotel in 1967 and therefore was bequeathed 1/16th of Hughes's estate in his 1976 will, and he hasn't given up yet. His story has been reported, litigated, re-reported, and re-litigated, with the same result: hoax. The federal appeals court in Denver just threw out Dummar's latest, which was a 2007 lawsuit "proving" a conspiracy to deny him his share. Salt Lake Tribune
