Thank you, but how will you inform the unknown person who wrote on your wall dry erase board the spuriously-attributed quote?

I tried to inform the public that the NY Times Op-Ed "Lincoln's Surveillance State" was a hoax perpetrated on the NY Times and its readers. And, I was almost completely unsuccessful. My Lincoln-history based critique of Spielberg's "Lincoln" movie was another near-complete failure of mine.

From personal experience, I would have to say that this is the reason that an accurate study and statement of Lincoln's true words and actions is so important. For instance, Lincoln wrote: "I say 'try;' if we never try, we shall never succeed." Letter to General G. B. McClellan, October 13, 1862.

"So very difficult a matter is it to trace and find out the truth of anything by history." -- Plutarch
