# Points about Tweedledee and Tweedledum
Much has been made of the curious features of
Tweedledee and Tweedledum. We propose here to
set some of the controversy to rest and to uproot
all of the more outlandish claims.

# Points about the facts
In recent years, more and more attention has been
paid to opinion, less and less to what were formerly
called the cold, hard facts. In a spirit of traditionalism,
we propose to reverse the trend. Here are some of our results.
