Man, this reminds me of how everyone just makes stuff up about cooking times, parking rules, or which road floods first. It's like we're all scared of looking dumb for two seconds, so we guess and hope nobody checks. Once you get used to saying "no clue" it kind of frees you up, because now you actually learn the real answer instead of passing on bad info to the next person. I've started doing the same thing at work and with my kids' homework and it's cut down on a lot of nonsense.

Honestly keeping a text file with the source and date sounds like a lot of work for a forum post, and half the time the "real" source you dig up is just some other blog anyway. People act like tracking down a 1994 news clip proves something, but that just means you found one more person who said it.

Spirit Island humbled me so bad I apologized to the box.
