Is the Chronicle still bothering to collect salary information on adjuncts or do we need to do another Google spreadsheet?
This headline in The Chronicle makes it sound like most adjuncts are independently wealthy when the reality is they have to hold second and third jobs just to make ends meet.

Historians who work with oral history etc know this effect. It increases significantly around traumatic events, & over multiple retellings, which is one reason testimony around eg the JFK assassination is contradictory. Memory isn’t a record of events; it’s your brain forming a narrative for you.
This is, incidentally, exactly why you should be very sceptical of most war memoirs that weren’t written shortly after the war in question (and even then memory can prove surprisingly malleable even unconsciously)
All my mates know the harrowing story of how I nearly drowned as a kid and had to be rescued by helicopter. The story came up at a birthday meal and my mum said that never happened. After a lot of arguing and Googling we've figured out I fell asleep watching a 999 TV reenactment
