39 Years Later, the Kennedy Assasination Museum

NPR Special Correspondent Susan Stamberg talks with Jeff West, director of the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas. The museum is in the former Texas School Book Depository, where Lee Harvey Oswald shot and killed President Kennedy in 1963. West talks about the museum's purpose, and about a mysterious white x that's periodically painted on the road where Kennedy was shot.
