    Source Message Abdullah Told ¶8passage 553007 (lecture nid 2097), 'My old friend taught me that lesson vividly back in 1933. There was a deep depression in this land... I went through the deep depression back in New York City. I was a dancer.'
    Why His 'I am almost now 67' in the same passage is consistent with the lecture's own reconstructed December 1971 delivery date (66th birthday Feb 1971, 67th not until Feb 1972), so nothing here contradicts the telling date.
    Reasoning Neville states the year 1933 directly for when Abdullah taught him the lesson; no month or day is given. This is read straight off the source, so it takes no confidence ceiling.

    Reasoning The lecture's sole delivery claim (d0, probable) reconstructs Friday 1971-12-10 from Neville being almost 67, Christmas being two weeks away, and a matching Monday-4-October-opening/Monday-10-January-reopening season schedule; the telling of this Abdullah story inherits that same probable confidence, no higher.
