Yes, I know that CAH has a massive time problem in her book. People say that not everything can be accurate and it's no big deal, but she indicated that she was not just writing from memory but from contemporaneous diaries she kept at the time, so I find the inconsistencies odd, since she says she was referring to writings and audio tapes that were, presumably, dated.

I agree with you about the tendency to compress and expand time. Obviously, since Ken was dealing with such a finite time frame in the FM history, I think he would be more reliable when it comes to when things happened. I was just saying that I completely missed the fact that CAH may have hinted that Stevie had an affair with Ken. That escaped me.
