I had the cooperation of almost everyone who's still alive. The Jobs visit isn't in there "live" since I wasn't there. The truth is, most of us didn't even hear about it until months later.

As for Ethernet, the lightning incident really happened pretty much as I described. Ron Crane's widow loved it and said she hadn't thought so much about him since he passed. You can see him in one of the earlier Ethernet videos (he passed in 2003, IIRC).
