I hate it when people post other peoples findings (yes, I am gulity of it too) - people need to start thinking for themselves and stop putting so much credit on other peoples word.
That would imply that everyone is an expert in every area of human knowledge and all views should be treated equally. I reject that notion utterly. Some people are more knowledgable about certain fields than others. I understand the scientific method and the value of peer review by other experts in the same field, so I'm going to give infinitely more credence to a study published in a reputable scientific journal than I am to a statistically-insignificant anecdote from some random person on the Internet.
