Like it or not, the NIN's and Debka's of the world were out in front of this Orange Alert, which is why I appreciate having them around, even if we sometimes have to debunk them (just like we have to do with every other media outlet).

Bump!

Anyone with an IQ of a turnip or higher was out in front of the world on the Orange alert.

I was just being obnoxious. I like them too. In fact, I miss the early days of FR when people used to post alot of heresay and rumors. It was alot of fun (the way telling ghost stories is fun) especially prior to Y2K.

There were always posts like "my cousins uncle lives in XYZ and he says he has been seeing....". None of them ever seemed to pan out but it was entertaining.
