without any basis. Then somebody else who doesn't bother to check the charge out repeats it as if it were actually true. Others, who can't - or won't - think for themselves, upon hearing/reading it being repeated, eventually think since they have heard/read a number of people repeating it, it must then be true.

Anytime you can provide proof to back up the charge you made I'll take back my declaration that your charge is BULLSHIT..
