People have bad memories. I, for instance, don't remember any Beerstained Bears at all. I think beer steins are good to keep flies out of your beer at Oktoberfest. It is Oktoberfest. As far as I'm concerned, it is Oktoberfest forever, and the bears can get their own beer.
What sort of half assed conspiracy theory is this anyway? Somebody comes back in time to change the names in a children's book. What kind of asshole would a time traveler have to be to do something like that? "Well, Roger, you went back in time in the twenty dollar time machine, what did you do?" It better be something better than changing the names of fictional bears. Talk about waste of money and time. I hope I live long enough into the future to find that person. I will beat them to death with a copy of The Berenstain Bears and the Bad Dream.

I just learned about this earlier this week, thanks to the new AVGN. I find the whole theory to be unbelievably fascinating. Perceptions of reality are already so incredbly subjective. I love it.
I can’t think of a good tagline so this will have to do. Suggest a better one for me?
I don't think this is evidence of it (I just think everyone misremembers it), but I do really think there there is a universe out there in the multi-verse when it is spelled "Bearenstein."
I'd never even heard of these books, but I can see how this collective misremembering might happen.
You all had these books as kids, and sort of knew the name of the writer. Then as you got older you came across other Germanic names like Wittgenstein and Hammerstein and all of these ended in ...stein, not ...stain. So you subconsciously adjusted your childhood memory to fit your adult experience that "long German-sounding names always end in ...stein".
I can even see how, even when you became a parent and bought the books for your kids, you'd already made the mental adjustment and still "saw" the name as ...stein. The brain makes all sorts of short cuts like this, and sometimes gets it wrong.

So much for the conspiracy.
