Hehe, well, true. This conjures up some sites in my head that I'm
sure you'll agree are total trash. However, there are degrees of
severity. Sometimes, it's not immediately discernable when a site
is crazy until you look up close, or there might be some things
of value on the site amongst other questionable things. I mean,
a person that is so unquestioning to accept a site without any
sort of logic-check whatsoever is probably not dealing with a
full deck of cards anyway. You can't help people to think rationally
if they don't want to think rationally. It would still be of benefit
to those who do take stock in other people's viewpoints and ideas
while weighing these opinions against the measure of reasoning.
