You are right, that is just your spin.  Carolyn was an expert on the breed 
and if I have enthroned her, I am not by myself.  She achieved a lifetime of 
work that resulted in huge respect by many.  She was gentle by nature and 
with a keen sense of humor, but she knew what she was.  She was also a lady 
with great humility.  One would make a mistake to consider that she was not 
confident and assured of her position as it related to this breed.

<<And why is what Carolyn observed "fact" while reports of what I
observed is "hearsay"?  >>

I apologize if I have offended you, it was not my intent.  Carolyn was 
reporting information she observed directly involving her dog and some actual 
events that occurred thereof.  You have asked us to accept some obtuse 
information from a "friend" and taken that information to the point of 
discrediting the reliability of a person who reported the information, from 
that "friends" report.  Even to the point of saying the person who reported 
the information was not capable of accurately reporting because of some 
emotional involvement and anger. Can you see there is a great difference in 
what you said and what I understood Carolyn said?  If I got it wrong in what 
Carolyn said, I can be corrected by those who told me and that will be fine.
