Over years of Walter's weekly visits Neville repeatedly tried and failed to pull him out of his gloom by insisting that imagining creates reality.
Date (happened)
before 1965
bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [546006] belong to telling lecture nids [1831]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1965 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1965 is the MIN across telling lectures.

bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1965 to before 1965-02-05.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 1831 (certain delivery 1965-02-05); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1965`, an envelope over delivery YEARS computed without reading text. Its premise is that the fact is true by the time it is told; on that same premise the DAY of the telling is a strictly better upper bound. Nothing is re-decided — the bound is stated to the precision the evidence always supported. The delivery claim for 1965-02-05 on nid 1831 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.

Reasoning
