Duh.
I'll take that as a yes. Therefore, we can both agree that 96 is less than 100. We can also agree that by the definitions you've provided, "hundreds" can include any number between 100 and 999. Since it is a fact that there were only 96 witnesses who reported seeing an object rise from the surface before TWA800 exploded, it is also a fact that by your own definition, your statement concerning "hundreds of witnesses who saw a light streak up from the ground toward the plane" is incorrect. That was exactly the point I made in my original post to you. The facts stand. You are wrong.
