Yes, in my haste to respond to these discussions in a timely manner I sometimes I do not properly qualify what I write.
I wrote "the authorities have found NO evidence that al Qaeda was behind the anthrax attacks.". I should have written, "AS FAR AS I KNOW AFTER COLLECTING ALL THE INFORMATION I COULD FIND OVER A PERIOD OF FIVE AND A HALF YEARS, the authorities have found NO evidence that al Qaeda was behind the anthrax attacks."
I wrote "In fact, ALL the evidence seems to dispute such a belief." I should have written, "In fact, AS FAR AS I KNOW AFTER COLLECTING ALL THE INFORMATION I COULD FIND OVER A PERIOD OF FIVE AND A HALF YEARS, ALL the evidence seems to dispute such a belief.
Is that better?
