Where I came from, many years ago and in the far cold north, it was bad 
tale etiquette to imply any story was not the whole truth and nothing but 
the truth.    I really did enjoy Rev. Bob's story,  but he did open the 
door for other stories.  Good tale etiquette always requires that a better 
story be told.  I'm sure with the wealth of experience in the paddlewise 
group there must be other stories out there.  But as the Ojibway, who I 
grew up with would say, all stories must stop at the spring thaw because 
the spirits will wake up and they may come to disagree with your telling of 
things.
