As an answer to: Re: Ultimate speculation . . . written by Ted at 28 Jul 2002 22:28:03:
The answer is in this part:
>As I have posted before (and not just the once), you really can't believe most, if any claims made on the Internet.
>So what do you do? Well, you have to use your own "common-sense" to judge what you read. If you are reading a web-page, you determine whether this is a page hosted by a reputable body or is it perhaps a "free" and anonymous page on Geocities, Yahoo or such? In either case, you look at the autobiography of the author, and see what you can make of it, possibly comparing it with other Web pages concerning him/ her, some of which may themselves fairly authoritative.
>And then, you look at the content - what they have to say, and decide whether it makes sense to you. You have to put all of these things together to get an idea of firstly, how accurate and sensible whatever claims are made, are, and secondly, whether they are useful you your own situation.
