LINE OF THE DAY, part XXXV

     This is from a recent post on Snopes. It very clearly states why nothing you do will ever make a difference in anything:

"...I tell them that I don't really believe our site (Snopes) makes much of a difference in the greater scheme of things; that the responses we get tend to indicate a good many people are determined to believe whatever they want to believe, and no collection of contradictory factual information, no matter how large or authoritative or impressive it might be, is ever going to dissuade them from their beliefs."    
You said it Homer. You sure said it.

     Remember that quote the next time you try convincing anyone of anything, especially if it's a subject dear to you, and also that you are vulnerable to it too.
