You said -- "Sorry about this but ... hindsight is always 20/20 and additional attention is always welcomed when remembering loved ones. This is someone embellishing the hero."

Either this happened as they described it -- or it didn't. If it did not, then you would be calling them liars -- because that's what they said they did.

If someone says to me that this is what they did, and I have no compelling reason to disbelieve it -- then I'm going to take them at their word. It does not seem to be a very big problem to take them at their word.

Or -- are you in possession of *direct information* about them -- which contradicts their story -- and are, therefore, calling them liars?

Something is either true or false.

It's really that SIMPLE!

This situation is NO different than any other situation. You either believe bill clinton or GWB or you don't. Either you believe what ANY person says or you don't. Just because a tragedy occurred doesn't mean I'm going to believe anything that comes down the pike to have the surviving spouse feel better etc.. I am suprised at how eager people are to believe this nonsense for any reason.
