BAD DATA REPLACED (Ian Harris, 23 May 2002)

Again, we have a circular argument. I agree that there was bad data, some problems with the program and the rest. What we don’t know is what was corrected, what stayed in, and what if any effect it had on the big picture.

It’s as if you hacked a e-mail from me bitching about someone installing a wrong valve spring in one of my Studebakers. Did I later replace it with the correct one, or did the wrong one work just fine ? It may be a unknowable fact.
