Each of your presentations should carry a disclaimer at the page top and bottom to avoid acceptance as truth. Although humorous in some cases and shocking in others, this is dangerous. So, get it straight to all viewers/readers as to the veracity. Lets keep history undistorted.
We have enough problems in life without this. I already have far too many erroneous messages jamming my mailbox. For years I just ignored them until I realized how injurious they are to history and people. I'm now constantly responding with the straight because I'm tired of and disapproving of distortion of people and events. Don't add to it. Add visible and repetitive disclaimers.

A little know piece of the Thomas Edison story is the trouble his daughter caused in his invention of the light bulb. Many mornings they would catch her in the back office sitting in front of an array of "wind generators" as they were called then. This invariably would cause a severe power draw down in the warehouse. After several weeks of such tomfoolery Edison had enough. He then took his wife's Model A and cut off the cab top leaving a convertible car – the first to be exact – subsequently telling his daughter, Cleopatra, to drive around the block several times before she clocked in.
