Oh dear. It cannot be denied that Professor Churchill is way too damned lazy. He must have the same or better access to all the digital databases research universities tend to offer, and yet he's reading the LBO-talk archive looking for sources? And how did he manage to get even the publishing date of that Diane Pearson essay wrong, _when I provided the correct date in that posting_ (as you can see at <http://mailman.lbo-talk.org/pipermail/lbo-talk/Week-of-Mon-20050214/003605.html>)???
It must be also said that the investigators -- Professors Marianne Wesson, Robert N. Clinton, José E. Limón, Marjorie K. McIntosh, and Michael L. Radelet -- are either pretty lazy, too, or technologically lame -- hence their error. The posting in question is still available: <http://mailman.lbo-talk.org/pipermail/lbo-talk/Week-of-Mon-20050214/003605.html>.
Or they could have easily tracked me down, with my voluminous postings all over the Net with my email addresses, and asked me.
The investigators say: "An article by J. Diane Pearson that _is_ directly relevant was published in Wicazo Sa Review in 2003: "Lewis Cass and the Politics of Disease: The Indian Vaccination Act of 1832."200" (at <http://www.colorado.edu/news/reports/churchill/download/WardChurchillReport.pdf>).
I cited that essay, too, in my posting in question: <http://mailman.lbo-talk.org/pipermail/lbo-talk/Week-of-Mon-20050214/003605.html>.
It's possible that Professors Wesson, Clinton, Limón, McIntosh, and Radelet did not look that up on their own either, just as Churchill didn't with the other one. Despite what they incorrectly say -- i.e., the posting being unavailable -- in the report, I suspect that they actually found it in my posting also.
Oh, academics!
