: I think you're missing the fact that two separate Bungie employees, at two : separate times, said two distinctly different things about that particular : bit of Halo lore. : The interview you're referring to was posted in October, 2004. Frankie's : quote comes from July, 2006 - two years later. In August, 2006, Staten : acknowledges that his original statement was "controversial", : and that at that point they were actually working on the "is it, or : isn't it?" question - it's not NEARLY as cut-and-dried as you're : suggesting it is. : I'm not sure there's a consensus amongst Halo's writers about whether or not : I Love Bees is canon (or Canon) or not - I'm DAMN sure they've never : resolved the situation in any definitive way publicly. It's not about who said it. It's about what evidence we have. Even though Frankie's statement came at a later date, he didn't provide any evidence to suggest that ILB is canon -- while Staten did (disregarding the time he said it). I have no doubt that things might have changed with the ILB issue, but from what evidence we have NOW, it's speculated that ILB isn't canon. If it is canon, tough for me. I'm just going with the evidence we have at the moment.
