QUOTE: DAVID MCCOLLOUGH

  The following quote was brought to our attention by NewsScan 
  Daily(www.NewsScan.com):

  No harm's done to history by making it something someone 
  would want to read." (David McCollough)

  [Of course, it cold be argued that readable but inaccurate
  written history does more harm than good.  In numismatics,
  there are innumerable conjectures on the part of writers
  that have come to be accepted as fact by later generations
  until (and sometime long after) it has been demonstrated that
  no primary evidence exists to verify them.  -Editor]
