    Why pm-actor-525: confidence possible -> doubtful by the M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 001): Symbolic rhetoric modeled on Blake's 1,800-year sleep, adapted to Neville's own figure of speech; not a claim about a real historical span, so possible overstates it.
    Reasoning Neville says that in his case '1,959 years had fled' before awakening, adapting Blake's symbolic 1,800-year sleep. Read as a symbolic duration ending in 1959, it suggests approximately 1 CE-1959, but the theological rhetoric does not establish an ordinary biographical interval.
