well if its printed in a book then it must be true. /sarcasm.

this reminds me of those news reports a while back about the massacre during the Korean war. ABC news even took the guy who revealed it back to Korea, where he could tearfully recount the event. The reporters who broke the story won prizes/awards for the story.

over at www.amazon.com:
