There is an entire generation of young adults out there who believes a bunch of stuff they read in Wikipedia.

They think Wikipedian, that combative, know-it-all, don't believe it unless they read it online, partisan, can't-be-reasoned-with attitude.

Wikipedia critics tried to get a message out but were overwhelmed by crazies, many of them Wikipedians themselves intentionally muddying the waters.

It's a decade later. The people who remember how to think are dying off. Game over.

Jimbo made a few bucks. Hopefully he feels bad a little. After a decade of actively serving hardcore pornography to children in schools he should be in jail.

It's actually by John & Lyn St. Clair Thomas, from their book "Eyes of the Beholder".


Then it's yet another example of how search engines and people's crowdsourcing fail to understand which is true and which is false.

The show Criminal Minds has this quote attributed to Chase at the end of one of their episodes.

That's the problem of Wikipedia in miniature. People slap down any old junk that can be "verified" by a Google search of dubious sites.
