This was exactly the additional point I wanted to make - that it is imperative to get information from a variety of sources and draw the most informed conclusions you can.
The problem is - that's difficult and requires a significant amount of effort sometimes. That is one of the things that has drawn me to this forum - there are a bunch of sharp people coming to the table with differing viewpoints on the same subject based on all of the factors mentioned above. To me, this forum is like a big, giant "Point/Counterpoint" on a daily basis.
It helps me keep some of my biases and prejudices in check.
