Neville sends Freedom Barry to teach in San Francisco

Freedom Barry moved from Los Angeles to San Francisco on New Year's Day 1960, given Neville's mailing list, to take over lecturing to Neville's San Francisco audience.

Adjudication: Both rows are Freedom Barry's own 1996 recollection and agree substantively; row 1 gives the precise New Year's Day 1960 move date while row 0 adds the end date (1975) for the run. Not a real conflict - the two rows are complementary, so the vaguer/broader-scope row is kept as a corroborating detail rather than demoted as wrong.

    Reasoning Passage 534234 (lecture nid=1236, delivered 1966-02-01): 'I persuaded him, oh, maybe eight years ago to go and do this work in San Francisco.' Confirmed the 1966-02-01 anchor is genuinely corroborated, not a lone legacy label: the lecture's own internal narration states 'today is Tuesday' (per processing notes), and February 1, 1966 computes to a Tuesday via the doomsday algorithm (1966 doomsday=Monday, Feb doomsday=Feb 28=Monday, so Feb 1=Tuesday), while the refuted competing claim 1967-01-16 computes to a Monday and does not match. Anchoring 'maybe eight years ago' to 1966-02-01 gives circa 1958. This is a new, independent witness distinct from the existing 1960-01-01 certain claim (Freedom Barry's own 1996 recollection); Neville's 1966 account is closer in time to the actual event but explicitly hedged with 'maybe', and its computed year is about two years earlier than the better-corroborated 1960 date. Recorded at circa/possible, not higher, to reflect that hedge and the discrepancy -- kept alongside, not in place of, the existing claim, per the instruction to preserve competing readings rather than discard the weaker one.
