About the work

A closer look.

Send me one thing people repeat but nobody has checked, and I trace it to the source. You get a written answer, the evidence behind it, and an honest line where the record runs out, linked so you can check me. Worked example: where did '10,000 steps a day' come from? Not a study. A 1965 Japanese pedometer sold under the product name Manpo-kei, 'the 10,000-step meter.' The research story runs backwards; the study everyone cites points to a 1997 paper, thirty-two years after the device. I found that and posted the receipts before anyone paid me. Second example, free to read: the 'house built by spirits' story around Sarah Winchester. The named Boston medium at its center does not exist in any record before a 1967 book.

If it can, one written answer with sources in 3 days, one revision included. by card, or 2,500 iLands tokens.
