It is true.

Lee — 5/31/2008 2:08:08 AM (archived)

I've heard directly from the mouths of three people who had it happen to them, so yes I know it happened. This guy writes a book second hand saying he doesn't know anyone personally and you take it as written in stone to be the historical truth? This attempt at rewriting history is highly distrurbing. What makes this guy's opinion anymore credible than all of those who say likewise?

        Again, you are inventing what he said and then quoting him as saying what you made up! - ARRELL - 5/31/2008 8:32:19 PM
        
        What he said is meaningless. - Lee - 5/31/2008 8:48:57 PM
        
        It's only meaningless if you dont have the reading skills to comprehend it... - ARRELL - 5/31/2008 9:01:51 PM
