    <p>Let me play Devil's Advocate.  If I observe or relay (credible)
      observations, but do not know intervals or durations, should I
      post?  For example, if one sees a Grand at 6:00 am, but does not
      the prior overnight, the interval, should one post?  Is some data
      better than none?</p>

    <p>Sorry, but the lawyer in me sometimes surfaces.</p>
