He's always been vague about these questions. But they should be easy to answer. Unless he's the source of all the family stories.
  
  His claims varied. True. But how was it a narrow range? If I told you my mother's family was from Sudbury and my father's was from Montreal, then a year later I told you my mother's family was from Thunder Bay and my father's was from Kingston, you wouldn't say I had erred in a narrow range because those cities were vaguely in the same areas. Heck, no. You'd say I had a problem knowing where my family came from and that I'd better check with my family to see what the truth was.
  
  Boyden writes fiction. That I don't object to. He can write anything he wants when he calls it fiction. What I object to is when what he says is fact turns out to be fiction. Can you see what the sin is now?
