    Anyone can explain why SCO chose to / had to admit that the memo is legitimate?
It's called "taking control of the issue so you can spin it." Let me explain by analogy:
    "Yes, dear, that is lipstick on my collar, but it's not what you think. See, on the train this morning there was a near-accident that bumped the little old lady in the facing seat into me and some of her makeup got on my clothes. She was ok, though. See...if I was trying to hide something, I would have changed shirts or something. Heh. Weird, huh?"

    "Ok, then how do you explain the hicky on the other side of your neck?"

    "Err..."
