        OK, let's see if I understand this right. There's a revolution  
against the Tsar in Russia, and the events of that revolution are  
recorded. A few years later, as the result of internal political  
infighting, some of the records are changed to eliminate the  
participation of some of the leading figures, as they would represent  
unpleasant political realities for the current leadership.

        Is this what you call "setting the story straight"?
