It's been almost a month since I put out the latest article on it, but
for those of you who have been following this Lisbon earthquake /
Washington Post / roving priests / Jay Robert Nash story, I have what
may be the last piece to the puzzle of how this bit of legend made it
into Wikipedia as fact. Nash, the Post, and our contributor were still
all wrong in the end; we're still the only ones who have corrected the
mistake.
To recap:
