On Wed, 29 Mar 2006 20:06:58 +0200, in a place far, far away,
"frédéric haessig" made the phosphor on my monitor
glow in such a way as to indicate that:

Why should anyone believe this now?

Because there're many reasons to believe it to be true?

There always are.

No, not always.

The technique of the big lie requires it.

It may or may not be true this time, but after the series of lies coming
from Washington on this subject

What "series of lies" is that?
