30. Please note that this version of the book
has been altered to glorify Bev's actions, and reduce other's contributions to the investigation.

Here's an example:

Black Box Voting: Ballot Tampering in the 21st Century by Bev Harris with David Allen

http://www.blackboxvoting.org/bbv_chapter-...

Chapter 9, page 88

...I clicked all the links, including the link called “FTP,” which took me to a page full of files.

I called David Allen. "What am I looking at?"


The link above links to the REVISED edition of the book.

The next graf of the REVISED edition reads:

Allen admitted that the file names, like “BS4” and “GA-062802” meant nothing to him, but we both knew that this was an online file stash. He snorted and offered a comment: Incredible stupidity.”

What follows is the first detailed look — ever — into a secret voting system.


In the ORIGINAL version things are written a BIT different:

http://www.blackboxvoting.com/bbv_chapter-...

Chapter 7, page 122

...I clicked all the links. I clicked the link called “FTP” and it took me to a page full of files.

I called my publisher, David Allen. “What am I looking at?”

He took one look at the page and snorted incredulously. “Incredible stupidity.”

“Click ‘Pub’ ” he suggested. We did. What follows is the first detailed look — ever — into a secret voting system.


So, you see Bev HAD to go back and add her little comment about my not being sure. In fact, I identified all the file types by their extensions and told her which file to concentrate on (.pdf, .doc, .txt, .asc, etc) and which to skip.

A prima facia example of Bev playing up her part while diminishing someone else.

Also, my actual words when Bev asked what we were looking at were: "The keys to the candy store". Bev re-wrote that to "incredible stupidity" because she feared prosecution because she then knew the true importance of the files.
