Ok, I understand, but enlighten me...what does this (posted by you previously) mean??::

"Also, I am as sure as I can be, without having actual proof, that the U.N. rumors have merit to them."

To me, Jake, that's the same thing as saying "I am sure as I can be, without having actual proof, that the rumor that John F Kennedy was assassinated by Lyndon B. Johnson has merit to it."

What I mean, you can say >ANYTHING< based on that kind of statement, cover your butt, and spread something that may be totally false. And that no matter how many times and with as much _EMPHASIS_ as you can to add a disclaimer to not base anything on what you say, there will be people who will make a move based on what he sees as a possibility posted by someone who has a large network of informants.

What I am saying, does the rumor passer have any _responsbility_ as to what he says, and for that matter to the people who will see it??

All of us hear so many things in our daily walk thru life, and choose to keep it within because we know it will be misintrepreted, even tho each and every time you say it you preface it with something like..."now this may or may not be true, but..."!!!

Also, what you see as "entertainment" or a "joke", oft times can be misconstrued as something other than that, especially that we are posting and sharing in a public forum in a thread titled::

"ADVR - Bulls no Bears" and "ADVR: BULLS AND BEARS!"

and is NOT titled

"Rumors, Innuendos, Unfounded-Unproven-Perhaps Unreliable Possibilities, Jokes and Entertainment Regarding Information Gathered from Reliable (and Unreliable) Sources Who Shall Remain Nameless About Advanced Viral Research Corporation That Should Not be Misconstrued As Gathered From An Inside Source, Which May or Not Be True...Proceed At Your Own Risk"

Before you get your lawyers after me, I would like to say the above was only a joke! But you get my point?
