24. I take stuff posted at that site with a grain of salt
I was a huge fan of that site until I followed a few links they had posted re: Minot AFB Oddities. Links did not substantiate the info in the original article, so I contacted them with my concerns. They basically gaffed me off and continued to run the article uncorrected, even though they agreed with what I was saying. Needless to say, I found these actions very misleading, and have NEVER trusted that site since that time. I'm not saying what is posted there isn't true, but I prefer verification from multiple sources before I'm willing to accept what's posted there at face value. BTW, that article was picked up by many other web sites and some of the cable news channels, so the misinformation was spread far and wide. This is the kind of stuff the right wing uses to discredit us as tinfoil conspiracy freaks.
