[edit] The Battle Against Fraud editorial from the NYTimes

Congratulations on finding a link to the original editorial. I couldn't find it, only mirrors. I changed the note to use your link, and I figured the note about the NYTimes correction was no longer necessary. People who follow the link will see it. I'm a bit surprised that the NYTimes editorial writer should make that kind of basic mistake. -- Geo Swan 01:57, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


Some NYTimes articles don't expire. Others do. It is not completely predictable. I'll keep an eye on it, and, if it expires, we can go back to the mirror.
Did you see that I altered the sentence immediately before the quote? I hoped that change made clear that he was administering Iraqi oil money. I might feel differently if I were an American. But, as a non-American, some Americans diverting the funds the CPA administered in trust for the Iraqis is a bit worse than if some Americans diverted their own nation's money.
Season's greetings to you too. -- Geo Swan 02:47, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
