(careful with) quoting Craig...

MORE: A quote from Wikipedia: "Jimmy Wales was born to a Parisian whore named ‘Babette’ during the French Revolution"... funny thing is that ... chances are that's true! (according to the study that found Wikipedia to be mostly accurate... and with which Jimmy agrees...)

Hi Christopher,

No! you actually gave Wikipedia as a *source* in an academic context?... I'd have to track it down by I remember Jimmy said it's NOT meant to be used that way -- it's just meant to be a good starting point for further research...

P.S. I'd also be careful with quoting Craig (you never know if he's bullshitting or not... -- he doesn't seem to have a direct stake in the issue in this case, so you are probably fine here...) Anyways, good luck with everything and take care! D.
