Take the following as truth: This is demonstrated in a variety of  a shared literacy and the assumptions and biases that go with it; an awareness of what books are for; consciousness and use of innumerable cultural allusions and educated idioms; and a relative ease in reading a periodical called VERBATIM, with sections called OBITER DICTA and EPISTOLAE.
Then the following statement: "VERBATIM was an article written once in the New York Times in the late 1960s." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: False
