After finishing up GURPS Uplift, I took another look at _Contacting Aliens_. And while it was fun to read again and check out the pics, etc., and it's cool how it's laid out like a "how to" book for Terragens agents dealing with Galactics, I noticed a substantial number of what *appear* to be major editing errors in terms of what happened when and to whom.
For example, one page says the Caltmour died out during the battles with the Lions, but another says it happened ~2,000 years ago. So I was wondering if you guys thought that was purposeful. That is, was it written in such a way as to reflect the spotty data available to Earthclan due to its substandard libraries and inexperience, or if the book just wasn't run past our Uplift timeline gurus such as Alberto for a thorough vetting.
