Must be some pretty funky maths that gives statistics under 0% or over 100%. I think we can be 100% certain that the real values will not be outside that range.

That would probably increase the nutbar vote, since only the city folk would get wasted. Napalm would probably be more 'targetted'.

Is coverage of our political system a soap opera? Same characters, same stories, manufactured drama, and poor acting? If so, they need hotter chicks and more fight scenes.

So Wiki's not a scholarly source. It's still a damn good source. Even if what is said is not cast in stone, it's usually said well and concisely, which serves the purpose of informing the uninformed about something they may have known very little about before they read it.
If you want to get the most out of it you read the edits. And the linked sources. And do other research. It's just a starting point for people who want general information, and that's why when you ask a general question of Google these days, you'll almost always get the Wiki page. It's always there, it's usually a reasonable overview, it's bloody huge, and it's totally free, doesn't even cost you the inconvenience of looking at ads or logging in.

<snigger>Maybe Jesus was really before his time, indulging in postmodern performance art to the txt generation with a great big "Y?"

With laxatives it's important to understand the difference between "Good shit" and "Good to shit".
