I was interested in how each person in a family views the same events from a different angle – sometimes the accounts match up, sometimes they don't.
It's easy to get complacent with following your friends and a few accounts matching your interests.
Thomas's account matched with what other witnesses claimed to see.
Mr. Smirnoff's account matched the description the intern provided the magazine's board.
American officials said parts of the government's account matched events tracked by American intelligence and that nuclear aid from Pakistan had flowed to North Korea in 2002 and to Libya last fall.

Nick's account matches Banks's: Cook "gave his orders with his wonted coolness," and the crew "worked with surprising cheerfulness and alacrity".
Mr Espinosa's account matches suggestions by Mr Cantlie in an Isis video that he had suffered waterboarding - a torture technique widely associated with the US Central Intelligence Agency.
Samir's account matches those of six other Jisr al-Shughour citizens who last week all spoke of foreigners – perhaps Iranians – who were standing alongside Syrian soldiers during the clashes.
