That is pretty childish.

How so? A football team lives in dorms, which are normally located on campus, but you say the campus was completely shut down.

You've also made allegations that published newspaper articles from 1961, which discuss certain classes being in session several weeks before what you say as the start date, as false. Why are you so emphatic about that?

What we are discussing is a fairly narrow factual question. Where the football team lives during summer practice in August, or for that matter where other students might have been living is irrelevant.

If you knew what the facts were, you wouldn't have said that. In 1961, during summer practice, the football team lived in the crewhouse which together with the practice facilities is several miles from the campus. I know that because I was there.

As far as I know, the only newspaper article I referred to specifically is Corsi's WND article having Stanley Ann in Seattle registering for and attending classes on Augus 19--but, if there are others on the same allegation, yes, they are all wet also.

If you were going to pick one specific period of the year in which it would not have been possible for Stanley Ann to be registering for and attending classes at the University of Washington in 1961, it would be the period starting on August 19 and ending on Labor Day.

I know that because I was there also.

And, at the time Corsi furnished the original transcript with the dates on it, I knew exactly how the error had occurred and why the error had happened. I knew that because I have seen many of the old style transcript ledgers at the University of Washington.

So when I see another letter from the University confirming the facts as I originally set them out (I think almost) two years ago, I don't need to authenticate it because I already knew what had happened and the letter spells it out exactly as I described.

All that said, it really doesn't make a lot of difference--we can still see from the record that someone claiming to be Stanley Ann was at the U registering for Night School in the normal course of activity on September 19 and we can further tell from the fact that she took the finals during regularly scheduled finals week and got a decent grade, that she was in Night School at Washington in that period.
