" The answer to almost any question is available within seconds, courtesy of the invention that has altered how we discover knowledge - the search engine.

At that point, it's up to you to sort the accurate bits from the misinfo, disinfo, spam, scams, urban legends, and hoaxes. "Crap detection," as Hemingway called it half a century ago, is more important than ever before, now that the automation of crapcasting has generated its own word: "spamming.""
