from WCH regarding the damaging Jackson "quote"
Quote:
After much searching, I have to acknowledge that in its many appearences on the Internet, the alleged quote from PJ is never sourced. This of course is not affirmative evidence of its non-existence, since many print interviews never reach e-form; but without a traceable source I'll have to withdraw it.

Very good and thank you. Reminds me of a line from the old Simon & Garfunkel song "The Boxer
" a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest."
This whole flap is an excellent illustration for the need of checks and balances, viewpoints from a variety of perspectives. People engaged in preaching to the choir rarely are challenged to produce sources. This is a good thing.
oh - how does one prove that something does not exist?
