the reason Macphee is hard to trace is the original spelling has 112 variants accepted now by our clan commander (our last leader got killed in 1626).

the second link failed for me lol.

... And you swallow the whole story without questioning it even [B]once[/B]? :rolleyes: + :missingteeth:

Yes, that's why I asked about it. It was on the sequence you commented on but the link is dead. Do you know of a current location for it or an archive? Wayback has nothing.

Edit: nevermind, I found it:

the link needs updating then

I think my favorite shows talk of crimes that people committed and then tell the cops you can't prove it (that's a confession in my opinion, saying you can't prove it is basically proof that there is something they need to prove).

[QUOTE=science_man_88;225462]the link needs updating then[/QUOTE]

No worries, I took care of it. (I'm an editor, remember?)

still the same on my end. I'll check in the next few days.

If you look at the bottom of the page there's a 'last updated' time. When Dr. Sloane makes the updates he's been sent this will be updated and the correction will be there.
