I argued both ways, so I am a loser as well as a winner. But I am not
about to make the same mistake twice. Now that Dr. Sherzer has been
found not guilty, I will go on record as saying that I believe the
verdict is proper and that Dr. Sherzer is, in fact, entirely innocent.
People vary. Some people are not really mature at age 30. Alexander
the Great, on the other hand, conquered the world at age 15.

No, Alexander the Great (born 356 BCE) had not even become the King of
Macedonia (at age 20) until after his father's assassination in 336 BCE.

Thanks for the correction. I can't imagine why I said that. I only
remember that I was in a state of exuberance and decided to purposely
disregard the facts. I suppose a spirit of irony and whimsy was in
back of it, but it was very wrong of me.

Dear Mr. Purvis,

Thanks for your gracious response.

I lack the time to respond to every error in historical fact that has been
written here. Please understand that I wrote only to address that specific
inaccuracy, not to make any personal criticism of you.
