Subject: The New York Times "Fact Checker"

        Charles Platt says the New Times "fact checker" would
have questioned any statement about dogs dying at the 21st Century
Medicine facility in their article about 21CM research.
        
        Actually it was not the writer, but the "fact checker" who created =

the statement  in the article that "dozens" of dogs have died over the
years.  
After a few minutes of trying to get me to say how many dogs have died,
she finally asked me if it's accurate to say that we've done dozens
of experiments.  I said: "that's about right".  She interpreted that to
mean dozens of dogs have died.
