except that Armstrong tested positive in '99

and he wasn't found guilty because of retrospective testing, those old samples were only tested retrospectively in order to develop and test a test for EPO

his old sample were correctly kept, as are all samples.

the re-testing was only traced back to him testing positive due to investigative journalism, not because the anti-doping authorities thought he might be guilty

other than that, spot on
