:) A little humor takes the edge off. I don't always remember that. But, as my statements can easily be checked by anyone willing to go research it, I don't mind stating established fact. I've found with some of these people that citation is a fools game. They find a reason to knit pick any citation under the sun and never deal with the central issues - only try to discredit the author by way of namecalling and such. Facts are funny things. When you stand them up by themselves and let people research them, they prove themselves. Unfortuneatly for some, they will only read "authorized" material or material that agrees with the "authorized" material.. and the "authorized material" is written by the same people that lied to them in the first place. Doesn't occur to them that if Bill Clinton lies to them, going to Bill and asking if he lied may produce a denial. But then if they don't believe he's lying and he denys it, then well all's better isn't it. If you clearly label the subject a liar, they know how to respond. If they have to think for themselves - forget it.

Scientists are a great example of this. Which really urks me. I'm a big Egyptology nut. And if you could see what facts say about the egyptian timeline and note that most scientists won't accept those facts because it messes with their accepted beliefs.... Tells you why Shoshenk is considered to be the Shishak Pharaoh in the Israelite History instead of who the facts say it was - Ramsees. But when you start matching other facts up with the timeline related facts. It wows you because everything then fits and stops making one wonder about all the unexplained inconsistencies. Anyway.. Glad you enjoyed the read.
