Mea Culpa

Last week, I wrote of a University of Massachusetts student who claimed to have been visited by federal agents for borrowing Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-Tung (better known as Mao's "Little Red Book") from the library. After being confronted with inconsistencies in his story, he has now confessed to making the whole thing up, saying he liked getting all the attention.

It's people like this who make trying to get to the truth harder. I apologize for highlighting a false story here and will do my best to make sure it doesn't happen again.
