No, that isn't at all what I was thinking. What I meant was it was unlikely a tonsillectomy would be mistakenly claimed on the insurance form. What is the motive for either Marguerite, Laza the insurance salesman, or FBI to fabricate such a claim? There is a chance that Laza misunderstood Marguerite's explanation of a osteopathic tonsil massage but somehow I doubt it. Greg is ignoring that David spoke to the pharmacist and he said tonsillectomy surgery was a regular part of Dr Philben's practice.
As for the pharmacist... let's quote him accurately, okay? According to David, the pharmacist said surgery "would have" been a part of his practice. "Would have" is not the same as "was". It indicates a degree of assumption.

It is a sad day when one Commonwealth citizen has to explain the King's English to another Commonwealth citizen but, you are from Australia, after all. Considering the fact your ancestors were convicts and Irish rebels, one can begin to understand the situation better.
Mr. Doyle is not referring to two Marguerites in his sentence, he is referring to either Marguerite, Laza the insurance salesman, or FBI. Are you able to comprehend that the word either is applied to Marguerite, Laza OR the FBI, and not two Marguerites?
Robert,
Are you still reigned on by King George VI? Has news not yet reached Canada that he fell off his perch in 1952 and was replaced by a female?
You know, I agree, It is sad. But you know what's sadder? When the person doing the correcting gets it wrong. I'll let you figure it out, or ask someone with a 3rd grade education where it was you took a detour off the cliff.
