Thats right. That's why I debunk them. The lying children call me names. They really hate it when you debunk their fallacies.
<sigh> I personally evaluate individual posters with the following in mind: the more an individual has been willing to publicly assert things which I know to not be true, the less credit I give that individual's opinions with regard to things about which I am not an expert. The converse is true as well. Dean has weighed in on topics such as router architecture and the ubiquitousness of packet-based-load-balancing in backbone networks, and been thoroughly wrong. Lots of people demonstrated his wrongness in these things, so I feel no need to recap. I have no connection to ISC, and have no personal axe to grind. David Barak Need Geek Rock?
