You're entitled to have that opinion and I disagree.
But all in all, i just wanted to point out what you also say - that
Barks gave her the name - that she wasn't made up by Don -
I just wanted to be sure that was known.

Erm - I don't know - I don't usually speak about things I don't
know much about - i try not to at least.
Barks gave Matilda some position - in one of his trees, if
I'm not mistaken, he made her be Gladstone's adoptive mother -
is that not so?
