There were no "additions," no "distortions." What I said he said is what he said. I knew, once this thing got going, that Gary would have to put on some sackcloth and make some amends, but he knows, and I know, and several other people know there was no "misquoting."
Of course, I note that Gary himself has never been quoted directly as making the claim he was misquoted. I'll shortly post something on the Flyer (www.memphisflyer.com) that puts this whole thing in better perspective.

Gary Odum thinks that he can say or do whatever he wants and there will be no consequences. He's turned into a big bag of wind who thinks he's immune to the rules of ethical, decent, truthful behavior and no longer has to listen to the people. In fact, he recently said just that during a committee meeting - that he didn't want to hear what the public had to say - and then he proved it by walking out when citizens began to speak. Power corrupts ... absolute power corrupts absolutely. It's time for him to go.
