These are unsolicited stories I receive by email. I make no claims as to the truthfulness of any of these, though one would be hard pressed to make up anything stranger than the truth. These include both survivor and survivor-survivor stories, that is to say a relative of a survivor.
I reserve the right to reject stories and to edit/censor stories for language/length/anonymity. Please refrain from using "cusswords." (I know the temptation may be great :^) Unless the author specifically requests the story NOT be anonymous in the body of the text, arbitrary initials will be assigned to names. I may make stories anonymous even though the author relinquishes the right to anonymity. The 1st story is a case in point. The author said feel free to post it, but since litigation is involved I felt it better to make it anonymous. (If you are involved in litigation, please check with your lawyer before sending me anything. I am not a journalist, and will NOT go to jail to protect your anonymity.)
Please include some form of "password" at the bottom of the
text, mother's maiden name, street address, whatever... I'll strip it out
of the published version. I will remove a story upon an author's request
which includes this password.
