Nope. It's like getting your food from the dump. There might be a few nuggets there you could eat, but why would you wade through a ton of crap to find them, when you can go to a supermarket that has mostly edible merchandise. You can waste your time datamining cesspools, or you can be efficient, and go where you know you'll find a lot of value. Life is short- we need to find ways to do what we need to do, and find what we need to find, without wasting a lot of time on useless motion. You seem to be advocating wasted motion. I'm all about efficiency. That's why wingers are banned here. I'm sure once in a while they same something intelligent, but it's just not worth wading through the rivers of their verbal diarrhea to find it. Same with the folks at Heritage. If you want to spend your life wading the brown rivers, go for it, but don't chastise other people for preferring less odiferous pursuits.

Nonsense. It is a waste of time. Why in hell would I spend one second reading something the Koch brothers or Jim Demint endorsed???;

when I can read a Robert Sawyer book about Neandertals, the internet gaining consciousness and the first aliens coming to earth-lol?
