But is spin the right word for it?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The AT&SF clearly stated the speed record as a well-detailed fact.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So they were either telling the truth or lying.</span></span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p>
