33. Because facts and their subtlety are important.

If your title were to be correct it should be more like:

EB's opinion that her friend might be right is correct.

From the post:

"Today, thanks to Judge Mehta, I think he may be right ..."

The way your OP title reads it disrespects the person who said the statement to begin with. THAT is the problem I have. I have a problem with the person who made the argument that the judicial WILL. HOLD. isn't getting top credit for their statement. That person is the person who went out on the limb and made a statement of hope in the face of adversity. Not the person, who after the battle is won, say's "Oh, yep, I guess you were right after all."

Effie said in her post she thinks her friend was right, so my OP is accurate StarfishSaver May 2019 #29
