But then, I fully grasp (despite my being "challenged by the English
language") that words really do have objective meaning and I do consider
good hard evidence, rather than just my whims.

Were it only that others here had such honesty and integrity.

Honesty and integrity? We still await an explanation of your claim to have
gotten your July 4th misinformation from a "historical journal", American
History Digest--a journal whose existence has gone unnoticed by both the
Library of Congress and Google. (Moreover, when you first posted the
article, you credited it to "Source Unknown"--a peculiar "author" for a
journal piece, though standard for a chain-email.)

We're also waiting for you to either substantiate or retract the implausible
defamatory quote you attributed to Norman Thomas.

When Elliott learned he'd made a mistaken accusation earlier in this thread,
he promptly retracted it and apologized. *That's* what honesty and integrity
look like.
