        mistaken in her assumption of how the manuscripts for Volume 23             
        of the Review were handled (Paper 289 at 42). That Cooperman                
        dealt with a large number of manuscripts, authors and editors               
        does not, without more discredit Cooperman's testimony.                     
        Cooperman was consistent throughout her testimony. She testified            
        that for Volume 23, a copy of each manuscript for the keynote               
        topic was sent to each guest editor (Findings 75 and 76).                   
        organizing and orchestrating each Volume was and still is (as of            
        the date of her deposition and cross-examination testimony) Ms.             
        Cooperman's job as production editor (Findings 52 and 53). As               
        part of her job, Ms. Cooperman performs certain routine tasks.              
        We are not persuaded that the shear volume of information that              
        Ms. Cooperman dealt with in 1993 discounts her consistent                   
        recollection of how manuscripts were handled for Volume 23.                 
             Snitzer additionally argues that it was possible that                  
        Cooperman only sent one copy of the Hill manuscript to                      
        Dr. Laudise and not to Dr. Hill (Paper 289 at 41). Snitzer                  
        directs us to the Cooperman May 12, 1992 letter in which the                
        letter indicates that one copy of the manuscript sent by Dr. Hill           
        will be sent to the senior editors (Finding 73). Snitzer argues             
        that the reference to "senior editors" in the letter was correct            
        and even if it was supposed to be guest editors, that the letter            
        indicates that only one copy was sent to the guest editors, and             
        that it was likely that the one copy was sent to Dr. Laudise.
