Since you refuse to mention one of your fanciful rumors that turned out to be true, why not be specific for a change; let's hear what information you have presented that did'nt "jibe with his (my) fanciful notions". Come on, I'm all ears. Well, the status of the main point you've been calling rumor has shifted significantly in the direction of fact with the publication of Judith's book, which you'll find very convincing if you read it. I happened to know a lot of the stuff the book presents years before it went public, and presented it more as substance than rumor. But I can understand how it would have sounded like rumor to you, as it did to me. For 25 years I referred to the guys who talked about this stuff (MMY's former secretaries, etc.) in the kind of terms you use to address me, so I can understand where you're coming from. My key point, if I have one, is that it's actually much more liberating and natural to accept things as they are and try to make sense of them, than to keep denying things, and trying to make them fit into a conceptual framework. You might want to try it sometime.
