Eh Hem: What?

[STS Lincolnite]

John,

Eh Hem: What? is exactly right.

I saw this too tonight on Jeopardy. I, like you, did some digging and found the same blog. I was sorely disappointed in the irresponsible history advanced by this library affiliated with a respected academic institution like Duke University. Everything in the text even screams that there is nothing to make one think that this is JWB much less that the photo doesn't look like him.

I e-mailed Dave T. and he called them out on Twitter (check out his boothiebarn site - there is a section on his twitter posts in the right hand column). As he replied to me, it probably will come to nothing but it was cathartic. We do what we can to set the record straight I guess.
