Why are hot dogs called hot dogs?
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Didn't you know that they have to list their sources, and have quality control monitoring? Isn't it still more reliable than guessing, and considerably easier than searching hundreds of sites to maybe get some information? :?

And how regularly is this theory actually put into practice? What's stopping someone lying through their teeth about what a source says?

Wouldn't you rather have accuracy over ease of access?

Would you consider the accuracy of a piece of work that's been researched over months and credited to a named, identifiable individual, with a degree in the subject, to be greater or less that something that's been bashed out in five minutes by an anonymous nobody?
