I understand that anyone can edit Wiki... and I also understand it can still be factual, if said sources are provided, just like any piece of literature that has sources.

But I laugh so hard at this huge "Wiki" crusade colleges, etc have taken a stance on. It is almost comical. Almost taking away "free thinking and expression" in a way, in force of the typical, cause this was a published book so it must be more factual, yet lots of those very theories and books are always getting amended as well due to "new discoveries", etc.

It can be a useful and resourceful tool if you use it properly and wisely.

Re: Off Topic 2011

You shouldn't cite Wikipedia directly, but it can be a good starting point. Some of the information is properly sourced and the links are available.

Yeah he told us it can be a good starting point to get a working knowledge of a particular question/subject.

Going to the last-ever Florida Marlins game tomorrow. It's supposed to be clear and sunny and they are expecting over 30,000 fans which for a non-opening day/game against the Yankees is a big deal for the Marlins. Can't wait.

Yeah, just gotta be smart about it and use common sense. I'm sure it's all the idiots who took Wikipedia as fact that demonized it in the eyes of colleges.

A while back I posted how my limbs were going numb extremely fast. Well, it's still the same thing, but today while at the elementary school my entire left side of my face went numb for 15-20 seconds.

Maybe time to go to a doctor?
