Thank you for those comments.
I've done a quick read of these inconsistencies or discrepancies. I think the mind has a way of playing games with people over time too, not that this would ever happen in Parliament with members of Parliament, but it does happen with witnesses from time to time.
Some of the questions that do trouble me are the pretty straightforward kind of questions, where the answer is no. Then at the following hearing the answer is yes, and there's a fair amount of detail involved with it: yes, I did this and I did that. Those ones are troubling in my mind, because it's like a question about whether the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. It's a black-and-white type of thing. You either knew you did it or you didn't do it.
I can sort of speculate why the answer might have been no at a particular period of time, for whatever reason, but those kinds of answers are troubling to me.
We're going to have a lot of problems with the other ones that are long explanations involving interpretation.
I agree with your comment about hanging dead men, but I'm also worried about people riding off into the sunset, maybe waving at us or giving us a particular salute. That bothers me.
