It was a West Vancouver cop. Yes it happened, but I did not record it. What would you suggest for proof? Do this: Pick out any conversation which happened between you and a stranger five years ago. One you did not record nor was witnessed by any other party. Now prove it, and I will use the same tools to prove my claims. But if there are no tools for you to use to prove that a certain conversation happened half a decade ago, why expect me to have such proof? Do you record each and every conversation you have with every stranger, so you can prove half a decade later to another stranger on the internet that it actually happened?
The guy who submitted the bill in court is not a friend of mine, and I was not there. It was recounted to me by someone who was there, in an email, many years ago. It was also then later confirmed by a second witness. Considering I have about 30,000 emails in just ONE of my addresses, and I have four, and since you will not even accept that email anyway, if I did spend the day looking for it, what would you suggest I bring as proof? All I could prove, if I was inclined to do so, is to show you the email.
I agree that is not 'proof', though it is sufficient to justify sharing with people the anecdotal story of how I received an email, and how that occurrence was recounted to me. That is what I did. If I recall correctly, what I said was "I got an email and this is what I was told". I did not say "this is what happened'.
