I'm glad they printed it and glad they left in the web addresses, but it is
a true shame what they cut out, especially this part:
> From "Memory, Trauma Treatment and the Law," by Brown, Schefflin and
> Hammond, "Claims about memory fallibility are only valid, when considered
> in terms of the type of memory assessed....More sophisticated studies that
> clearly distinguish between plot-relevant central information....have
> clearly demonstrated that memory is well and accurately retained for the
gist of a
> central action...even over long retention intervals." The base rates in
> adult misinformation studies run between zero and 5 percent for adults and
between 3 - 5 percent for children. From "From Ground Lost: The False
> Memory/Recovered Memory Debate" by Alan Scheflin, "although science in
> limited on this issue, the only three relevant studies conclude that
> repressed memories are no more and no less accurate than continuous
> memories...Thus courts and therapists should consider repressed memories no
> differently than they consider ordinary memories." Occasional suggestions
> about abuse are not generally effective, except in highly suggestible
people.
> Most people would almost have to be in a cult or in a cult like situation
or
> under considerable duress to produce an untrue memory.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths,
misdirections
and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with major and
minor
effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said,
CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
