You are correct sir. The comment "the surprisingly increasing number of baseless and/or unsubstantiated claims made on FFL" is simply a personal assessement and impression, not a substantiated fact. While I think the case could be made for such, it would be tedious to cull through all the posts.
Let me restate it as a hypothesis or research question: are there a significant number of unsubstantiated claims (and non-response to requests for clarification) made on FFL? The new folder section, if used, may provide evidence or such, or not. Or best yet, it will inspire people to substantiated their claims when asked. Thank you for your piercing inquiry. Its just the sort of "mind-changer" we need here. --- In [email protected], Peter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Should we start with this post first? ;-) > > --- braaahmaan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > An new folder in the FILES section (see uper left > > portion of FFL Home > > Page) has been created to track, and hopefuly > > reduce, the surprisingly > > increasing number of baseless and/or unsubstantiated > > claims made on FFL. > > > > Here is the FAQ for that folder. > > > > > > 1) Make one file for each general unsubstantiated > > claim. > > (To reduce clutter, pleas group near similar claims > > in the same file.) > > > > In each file, provide: > > > > 2) Provide a URL to the post of the alleged bogus > > claim, and key > > quotes of the claim. > > > > 3) Politely ask the poster for specific > > clarification and back-up of > > his claim(s).
