"How do you know that?"
"Because I don't remember which one was from which year, but these are from two separate years."
"Did you mark them."
"No. I picked one out of each year's evaluations."
"But you don't know the specific year each came from?"
"No."

It appeared that there was some confusion as to when he took the 'suspicious' documents to Lyle. "I don't know the exact date. Certainly after the second year I was in the course—January or February."
"Lyle said it was a year later than that. He said it was last year," pressed Diana.
