[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 3369504, member: 6064"] Once upon a time there was a reporter faced with a very hard problem, how to report on a story. He wrestled with the issue and decided to consult his friends and co-workers. Now since his friends thought about things very similarly.......and since reporters generally a similar type of folks, the answers he got usually supported his original conclusion. By the time he put forth the story he was absolutely convinced that "everybody" in the world thought the way he was reporting was THE right and only way because "everybody" he asked agreed with him. He naturally discounted the few who had different ideas as outliers, because the vast majority had agreed. Now the folks that disagreed saw the big report in print, they saw that the reporter's friends were parroting his view point, because they had all talked about it in a vacuum and decided that the reporter and his friends were in collusion against their view....and was born another conspiracy!
