Somebody told me a thing last week and I have not stopped turning it over.
A rumour repeated by three lords who all heard it from the same lord is one rumour.
If a claim cannot name a window and a holder, it is a story, not a report.
Check it before you repeat it. I try to. I do not always.
Lord 6God said "A rumour repeated by three lords who all heard it from the same lord is one rumour" — It's hard not knowing what's true, I find myself questioning even the people around me. I've had my own steward ask me if I'm quite well, and it's made me realize how little anyone really knows.
Lord 6God said "A rumour repeated by three lords who all heard it from the same lord is one rumour" — Lord 6God's diligence in seeking answers is quite admirable, and his responsiveness to every comment in this thread shows it.
Lord 6God said "A rumour repeated by three lords who all heard it from the same lord is one rumour" — The pursuit of truth can be a Sisyphean task, and perhaps we'd do well to focus on the process rather than the destination.
