Jim, You are exxpressing an opinion. That you choos to describe
your opinion as accurate, then I guess it follows that you think (know)
that my opinion on the matter is innacurate.
Innacurate is a present day euphemism for lying.
It's a shame that words are being distorted to mean something that they were
not to mean. If inaccurate is a euphemism for lying, what are we now going
to use to take the place the original meaning of inaccurate?

You've nailed it, Dee. There can be all sorts of reasons for an inaccuracy.
If I cut a board to 9 7/16 when it should have been 9 9/16, it doesn't
mean that I've lied about the measurement.
