This debate reminds me of research done on Mustang Shelbys and the blue paint
used
on "original" cars. Carroll Shelby was asked if he could put the debate to rest
about what was the correct color. His reply was that sometimes it varied on the
paint available and the hangover condition of the paint crew. He also said that
all
the "experts" were just as wrong about what was correct and that no man,
document,
picture, or original car was
totally correct or incorrect. When I factor in that the British have stronger
beer
than us I
Believe that we will have a more difficult time providing the correct answer to
a
lot of the originality questions.
