So is the consensus that justfacts.com
<http://www.justfacts.com/index.asp> is perhaps not just wrong but
misleading and deliberately deceptive while claiming
<http://www.justfacts.com/aboutus.asp> not to be so at the same time?
We really need unbiased investigative journalism. Does the Center for
Investigative Journalism <http://cironline.org/about-cir> do a better
job or the BBC <http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/> or FactCheck.org
<http://www.factcheck.org/>? The thing is, the [honorable] idea behind
justfacts.com is a good one.

This website pisses me off every time i try to check their
sources. Why did they even put sources in if they were going to
blatantly lie about what they contain.
Their caption reads "* The following pictures are of U.S.
submarines surfacing at the North Pole in March of 1959 and
August of 1962:"
Notice that the real description from
http://navsource.org/archives/08/08578.htm does not actually say
anything about the north pole

This is what the pictures of the north pole look like

They might of well of put a picture like this up, since they
are deliberately trying to deceive readers

It is understandable that many people can't believe that we
puny humans could possibly have a big impact on the
environment. My parents used to refer with reverence and awe
to "the inexhaustible sea"......
My favorite example is the line (paraphrased) from Larry
McMurtry's characters, Jim Ragg and Bartle Bone, a pair of
unlikely mountain men in a typical discussion.
"Remember when we used to be able to catch a 100 Beav' in
a winter right here at this bend in the river? We been
coming here for 30 years or more and now we can't hardly
find a one anymore? What happened to 'em all?"
