This does sound fishy. I cannot remember how the algorithm works that tries
to determine when a person's story was previously written. It should be
based on IRN not name. But if what you say is occuring then I need to look
at this closer. When I get time to check I will look into this. If I cannot
duplicate the error then I will likely get back with you for further
clarification or your database or something.
