Couple that with a caveat to never take statements made on Klarinet
as your final source for authoritative information, and I think you
have it just about right. Whether a misstatement is corrected on
the list or not, we should all investigate 2nd, 3rd, and 4th sources
before assuming an informal email forum is providing accurate data,
as Tony's own self-observation illustrates. Klarinet should be used
as a starting point, not as the final word.
