Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 015)
Reasoning
'Benny wrote me a long series that I got today. And I got others today' (passage 526864), spoken at the certain 1967-09-15 lecture (nid 76); 'next Monday night' fits Monday 18 September (nid 1282). The friend's story 'about two weeks ago' is a separate earlier receipt.

bound · possible
Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [526864] belong to telling lecture nids [76]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1967 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1967 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 15 September 1967
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1967 to before 1967-09-15.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 76 (certain delivery 1967-09-15); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1967`, 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 1967-09-15 on nid 76 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
