Several of you have said exactly the same things that I would have said in
both branches of this thread, have said before in previous threads, and (in
the case of the Young Eagles and Flying Start programs) have said in person
to all who'd listen and many who wouldn't.

My point is that y'all have been trolled again, and in the most classic
sense of internet trolling.

The only reason that I really felt compelled to write the above, which has
also been "done to death", is that this is an election year and we are all
going to see and hear a lot more statements and questions much like the ones
from our very own favorite local usenet troll--assertions that frequently
sound possible, but with poor or absent bibliographical data and unrelenting
demands that the opposition provide perfect bibliographies.

In my home state, we are more than midway through the primary campaigns for
governor, and I haven't heard many demands for proof of anything; but the
rest looks and sounds a lot like the worst threads in R.A.P and R.A.S.

As Yogi phrases it: "It's deja vu all over again."
