I believe the writers were told to follow the dictum, when choosing between the facts and the legend, choose the legend.Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-77802864359537863302017-08-01T02:46:29.693-07:002017-08-01T02:46:29.693-07:00Charlie Horse 47, thanks for writing.
