Oh, now we have a whole new category! How many more must there be?
Nor do these objections address the physical evidence. It will not do, simply to assert that because it accords with preconceived notions it must *ipso facto* be wrong.
Instead of "better truth" BTW, I should have said "higher truth".

So, the bottom line is that you agree with Errol Morris's revisionist history, right? - Audiophilander 08:13:59 08/21/02 (2)
BTW, not to suggest that you're blowing smoke, but some of us might be curious as to what you mean by "higher" truth as well! ;^)

  I clearly stated that I had not seen the film. My sources are all in print.
  And you know what "higher truth" means, however unwilling you may be to admit to such a condition.

    Not to be critical of your attempted liguistic exercise here, but if you haven't seen the film then poetic waxing over the minutiae (i.e., the meaning of revisionism) seems a trifle moot, does it not? Of course everyone's entitled to express an opinion, whether informed or originating from one's nether regions, but it would behoove you to investigate the source material at least once before drawing critical conclusions or playing semantics games, don't you think?
    Respectfully,
