    Burn,

    Beware the Wikipedia Factor and beware an inability to deal with ones own agenda.

    That's good advice HS, and not just for me. ;-)

    I think you highlighted the incorrect phrase? It is good advice for anyone who has an INABILITY to deal with their personal agenda, normally evidenced by their 'cherry-picking' the information that fits their agenda and ignoring or discounting facts that are at odds with their personal beliefs. This is part of the Wikipedia Factor. Cheers - HS

    There, I hope that fixes it! ;-)

    I'm glad to see reasonablness at work on this board.

    Not sure if anyone checked out that link I posted eariler, but if you need a laugh, give it a view.

    It's Ricky Gervais talking about Nietzsche and Hitler. Disturbingly hillarious.

    In my exploration of Nietzche in recent months I have learned that his ideas were misrepresented and sold to the service of Nazism by his daughter.
