INTEGRITY, OR FREAK CONTROL
"We also are taking great care in the area of "he said/she said" or "he did/she did thus-and-so" sorts of reporting. We have no way to verify whether a third party actually did say or do something that is claimed to be so. It is easier to be accurate from the outset than to try to correct misinformation later on. Please be careful about what you hear from others. Remember the
"telephone" game from your childhood days. We
are all responsible for information and rumor control."
