W.R. Farmer of SMU several years back published an article arguing for the
authenticity of Mark 16:9-20.  It's obviously conflate nature fits well
with the contention that all of Mark is a conflation of Matthew and Luke.
I still consider the ending to have been constructed in the second century
before the time of Tatian.
