Chain of custody

Our own notes. The subject declined to be recorded, so we are publishing the notes instead, typed up within the hour by the second reporter on the call and initialled by both. Where the two of us wrote down different words, both versions are printed side by side.

Held by: They Buried, document room

Excerpt

[IV, 00:31] put to him: moscovium half-life ~90ms, fatal to a fuel
  — "that is not what I saw"
  — different isotope. has said so for 20 yrs.
  put to him: unfalsifiable
  — "I know. I can't help that. I'm telling you what was on the shelf."
  [AT notes the same exchange as: "...what was on the rack." Both printed.]

Transcribed by the data desk. Line breaks follow the original. Bracketed matter is ours.

Editor's note

Published because an unrecorded interview that the reader cannot inspect is an assertion. Where our two reporters' notes differ, both are printed rather than reconciled.
