Hardly a cop out. I have limited time, and refuse to waste it on people who have the attitude of "no matter what is offered, I'm right, so there".
Again, there were exit polls here in Texas about who would win races that were proven wrong. That's life.

First the research, then the proof, then the
possibility of an apology. That's the way it
works in the rest of the country.

Cop out!

True enuf. But does that really apply here? If there
is a preponderance of occurrences, then there's likely a
"smoke/fire" kind of link.
