True, maybe you can provide concrete evidence.  And then again, maybe you
can't.  But if you want anyone to believe far flung stories, you'd better
take the time to substantiate such stories otherwise people will consider them  
as nothing more than fairy tales and political sour grapes.
Remember, anyone can say they could prove anything if they wanted to and had
the time to.  
I'd suggest you find the time.
As far as my story goes, I wrote it as a fairy tale and cannot prove any of
it.
