.......Lie?
A long while ago, I and certain others were given a photo that was supposed to be the character named Morgan. For a long time, approximately 3 years, a group of individuals had a misrepresentation put upon them. Of course an excuse was made that it was all a ruse to see if I would leak out the photo. In simpler terms, a lie was told to myself and others and this lie was a foundation that was built upon. At any time, the truth could have been told but it wasn't.
I used this photo as an avatar which was promptly lifted and defaced by those that did so mistakenly believing that it was myself. Eventually, the perpetrator of this hoax came up with the trust story "thingy" as an attempt to mitigate the fact that they were caught in a lie. To refresh memories, here is the picture:
Recently, and it did take some time, I was looking for the source of the photo that was presented to the group. When the photo was scanned and enlarged, the telltale signs of a dot matrix appeared indicating that the photo was originally taken from a printed source perhaps.
Thanks to some other Intrepid individual (the capital "I" is deliberate), I was sent an email indicating the source of the image of Morgan. Here is the link for those other intrepid individuals who honor truth above deceit. Now remember, the perpetrator of the hoax openly admitted to doing this so come to your own conclusions but ask yourself the following. Why didn't this individual bring it forth themselves? Wouldn't that have proven their point as to my breaking some confidence? No, there was nothing broken but only the discovery of a hoax perpetrated upon Paul Schatzkin for he was given the very same image long before I was and he verified this as well at the Huntingdon meeting. Now ask yourself this, how could this have been done for my benefit alone?

My regards to Brendan Kelly, you can sue Linda Brown for misuse of your image.
Prior to this, I had another image for my avatar and it is very apropos.
Time will save Truth from Falsehood and Envy.
