[Cz-L] Number Saved

The number on the plate.
  When Yad Veshem accepted Popovici as a Righteous the
   acceptance committee agreed on 20,000 saved.
    They have historians and do not put down numbers at random.
    But this number is not satisfactory enough for the group.
     We look for the absolute historic truth. We dig deeper.
       Allegory:
     There is a story of a man who got a medal for saving
      somebody from drowning.
       Two weeks later , the committee adresses the man and want
       the medal back: "The man you saved , drowned yesterday."
