“However, as an archivist, I must rely on official records. If the official narrative is flawed from the very beginning, the truth may be lost forever.”
I can only handle cases involving ten or more people; I lack the capacity for groups smaller than that.
Yet, I still want to include them all.
Scope: Accidents with 10 or more deaths; limited to industrial, mining, manufacturing, chemical, energy, industrial storage, and production/construction accidents.
I detest those who spread rumors, but I hate those who withhold the truth even more.
