I am not an author and truth is based on facts, not opinions. I find myself watching stuff like the History channel more and more. Movies about fictional stuff just don't hold my attention any more. I am very impressed with facts and someone's ramblings and posturings just have anything for me. What jerks like Harry Bellafonte says does not impress me but the fact that he said it is very important. Give me a nationwide poll or three for comparison about how many people think what Bellafonte said is correct and should he have said it and I have a fact to go by. I can tell somebody I think they are wrong and support it with a cut and paste from somewhere else. I see people yammerin' on about crap like how everybody likes limberger cheese and anybody that don't is stupid. Yeah that is original horseshit. We got enough horseshit so I say what are you talking about? 89% of people don't like limberger cheese and you are the stupid one and then I support it with what I consider a fact. Then usually I get told something like "Harry Belafonte says everybody likes limberger cheese and you are stupid for not taking one man's word for it." and "Stats are for loosers." Odly enough, I just found a poll that supports my claim, no kidding. Cheddar - 40.28% (29) Cheesecake - 23.61% (17) Stilton - 9.72% (7) Lancashire - 6.94% (5) Squeezy Cheese - 4.17% (3) Cheshire - 2.78% (2) Dairy lee triangles - 2.78% (2) Wensleydale - 1.39% (1) Edam - 1.39% (1) Total votes: 72 http://www.polloftheday.co.uk/content/view/98/108/
