The difference is that one of those is a real occupation; the other one isn't.
Narative analyst can be a real occupation. Movie and book critics do narrative analysis. So do producers and script doctors. However, what a narrative analyist cannot do is determine if the narrative is truthful.
Take, for example. the book
A Million Little Pieces. (I never read it.) Many critics liked the book. They enjoyed the narrative. They liked seeing a protagonist who was his own worst antagonist. However, what the critics could not do was detect that the book was fiction. That job fell to actual investigative journalists.
If P1k were a real narrative analyst, he'd have to agree that the entire space program is a great narrative.
The term is used tongue in cheek of course......
I am of course doing science here. I claim to be a medical expert as you are well aware. My opinion as regards the Borman case should be viewed as authoritative.....
Only if your claim is true.
Question #1
Which of the following procedures would be the most sensitive in detecting early iron overload?
a. Quantitative iron determination in a liver biopsy specimen
b. Urinary iron excretion in response to a test dose of desferrioxamine
c. cerum ferriten concentration
d. Serum iron concentration, total iron binding capacity, and calculated transferrin saturation
e.Iron stain of a bone marrow aspirate
Question #2
Which of the following statements best characterizes the hemolysis associated with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency?
a. It is more severe in affected blacks than in affected persons of Mediterranean ancestry
b. It is more severe in females than in males
c. It causes the appearance of Heinz bodies on Wright staining of a peripheral smear
d. It most often is precipitatied by infection
e. The best time to perform the diagnostic test is during a hemolytic crisis
Question #3
A 53 year old woman presents to the emergency room with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, hypotensive, tachycardia and disoriented. A FSG check comes back as >500. You quickly get a urine sample and analyze it with a dipstick. It shows the following results:
Specific Gravity=1.005/pH=5.5/1+protein/4+glucose/+ketones/0 RBC,WBC, epithelials cells.
You promptly get IV access and draw the necessary blood studies. Your next step would be to:
a.Give a Normal Saline bolus and run IV fluids wide open
b. Do (1) and give 10 units of regular insulin IV and start an insulin drip at 0.1units/kg/hr
c. Do (1) and give 10 units of NPH and start an insulin drip at 0.1 units/kg/hr
d. Do (1) and start on Diabeta 10 mg
e. Do (1) await lab results and observe
And, please, no cheating.
This is the beauty of being on this side of the fence haibut. IF WE FIND ONE THING, ONLY ONE THING OUT OF LINE LIKE A LAM-2 MAP, the official story cannot tolerate it.
Actually, you're quite wrong. While it is true that the truth is and must be consistent with itself at all times, the same is not the case for
historical truth. Within that world, we find inconsistency all the time. There are several reasons but, most usually, our model of past behavior is almost never detailed enough. Nor is our understanding of human motivation.
This is why courts accept standards of proof that are far, far lower than mathematical certainty or even scientific certainty. Look at the things historians cannot explain: In their last thousand years, Neanderthals adopted art, religion and all of the other signs of cro-magnon society and they were still rendered extinct. Witnesses to the Holocaust shared tales of lampshades made from human skin, yet no such object has ever been linked back to any Nazi. It is thought that Marilyn Monroe had an affair with John Kennedy but evidence putting them alone together is scant.
Reality does not present as either pretty or problem-free. Apparant contradictions can and do exist.
I am quite consistant.....Apollo was a nonmanned program to weaponize space. The astronauts are actors, not real spacefarers. Essentially everyone involved, all 400,000 , with the exception of very very very few, buy ain and believe this to be really a manned program. It is that aspect of the con that makes the thing work, the effectiveness of "duping the Apollo workers from the inside" if you will.
Why? Wouldn't the American people have been happy sending cool robots to the moon? The Russians were nowhere near a manned landing. We could have held off for years. Why was there any need for a cover-up at all? Patriotic spirit has been invoked more by images of war than of science experiments. Wouldn't Americans have loved knowing we had robots protecting us on the moon?
Ever been to Beijing? Shanghai, Saint Petersburg, New York, Paris, London?
One needs a good map to find his or her away around for the first time especially.
True. Do you know why? Because there's lots and lots of stuff in those cities. The moon, on the other hand, is almost entirely deviod of highways, skyscrapers, back alleys, wax museums or anything else.

You are welcome to your opinion, by all means Suspilot, but the objective data continues to mount against your side. As I said, every one of these facts with respect must FIT and fit exactly as the story was told for Apollo 11's official story to hold up as authentic.
If that were so, then why were so many mistakes made? Why no pictures of Armstrong (or somebody pretending to be him)? Why the map "mistake"? Why pretend to fly a mission with a sick Borman? Why pretend Apollo 13 failed? Why do things that would expose the narative to scrutiny.?
