Thats got a good amount of truth to it Roger but I havent found it as bad as
you seem to be painting it.
When I find conflicting info without a means to support either argument then
I start asking questions or hit the reference sites which can also be hard
to navigate.
With the number and quality on AMPS its not possible, any longer at least,
to pull the misinformation gambit very long.
