Wow, you are pretty bitter about this, aren't you? =)

IMO, they have so far always prefaced each sourcebook as being rumors and
such from shadowland, which means that you can always just say, "No,
that's not what they are." At risk of using another gaming company as an
example, White Wolf has regretted the writing of "Dirt Secrets of the
Black Hand " extremely, since most GMs will slice and dice it up for spare
parts and ignore it completely otherwise. =) That's what I felt that
Threats was for. Paranoia carried to the next level. "There are world wide
conspiracies out there, man!" type of thing. Maybe true, amybe not, maybe
I'm Dunklezahn's reincarnted human-nbody. I figure that since it is my
world, I can decide such things. I figure most GMs do the same thing.
YMMV.

Ever lovable and always scrappy,
