Tom - You can make the necessary sentences modifications at the Tag
Definition Level so that they will generate as you wish, i.e., for your Can
tag(s) add the appropriate working and variables so that you get the
"probably" included.

Add my vote to those who would like to see it changed.
I would even like it to go one step further and have
sentences associated with the various catagories so
that a report could say something like "John Smith was
probably the son of Joe Smith..." for a -CAN tag.
That makes it clear to others the this relationship is
not proven.
