alright, I just have to say this. it is.... SO funny to me... that after 2 pages explaining all the ways other people have screwed up factoids, numbers, names, in their watergate books.......

“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
