I just finished reading a book called Proofiness, which is all about using numbers as a way to lie, mislead, and manipulate. The FMSF is a stellar example. They distort, misrepresent, and outright fabricate evidence, and yet they STILL had such an impact. It's so frustrating. (And I had a similar run in with Sibyl Exposed, which turned out to be horrifically intellectually dishonest and fabricatey as well!)

I'll keep an eye out for Trujillo's book. Because of the recent shit, I've found myself returning to the old DID memoirs again, trying to figure shit out.
