Well I read that it had gotten the Gulf of Tonkin incident wrong in an article here. I stand corrected that sounds like a pretty good description of the incident.

I would like to watch it, I’ll get hold of it sometime.

The author of that article can't possible have seen the episode in question, or has possibly seen only fragments of it — or he misinterpreted it — because his criticisms are completely false.


Yeah that’s why I say I stand corrected on that issue and I’ll watch it first, then criticize it.
