...as to why the Web is important, irreplacable even.

I have noticed that I have been more and more taking a keen interest in "historical lies", things that are just not so, though everyone (including Hollywood) believes them to be. And heaven knows there's a lot of that about.

This evening on Finnish television: movie hour, "U-571". I notice I have seen it before, and instead of watching, google for U571. Lots of links come up, roughly split between the movie and the "real story behind the story". Try it!

(For fairness's sake, the movie makers do admit that theirs is a work of fiction. Just not very prominently :-( )
