[Post 560](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=19936225&postcount=560)

YesterDay, Chronos speculated that the switches were held by opposite factions.  
Brewha knew that was not true. Brewha posted that he didn’t think that was a good assumption to make. (But added that he didn’t have any evidence.)

I can see the townie motivation to not let bad assumptions continue. And I still don’t think that saying you don’t have evidence, when you are not ready to claim, is much of a lie. Obviously, YMMV.
