Peter, did you start the whole "Vonnegut at MIT" hoax just in 
order to be able to run your shaggy dog story up the flabpole once 
again?

Verification is meager, redundant information.There is more to wisdom 
than can be verified. My gang in high school used to say "If a tree 
falls in the forest, and only the gang was there to see it, did it 
fall?"
