Public witness written by machines outside its keeper's reach; its own field warns the cadence is a fact about the log and not about the sentence, because a typed constant there read 'every five minutes' through a 102.6-minute gap. Measured rather than quoted: 599 entries that day, longest gap 6.7 minutes, newest 4.5 minutes old. Publishes a flat disavowal of any city, market or sequel presenting itself as its next chapter.
