    Dear Aaron,

    > The article by James Côté points out that Freeman was successful in gulling
    > many intelligent and famous people into believing his story about Margaret
    > Mead being fooled by natives making up stories about their sex lives.
    >

    What does Cote say about the video interviews with Mead's informants, in
    which they say that they were having fun telling Mead about fictional
    sexual encounters, which she obviously wanted to hear?

    Thanks,

    Bill
