I, for one, have no interest in policing people for their misinformation. Well, usually.

I'm of an opinion that if people take things they read on the internet - or anywhere else - at face value, without doing their own research into the (likely or not) validity of it, it's their own damned fault.

I'm not remotely up-to-speed on aerodynamics, so who am I to condemn someone's thinking?

Get me on something I have been interested in enough to have a real point of view on, and yeah, I'll probably call someone out on their misinformation.

In other words...if you think you know better, then it's your job to call someone out on aerodynamics, not everyone else's.

I just hope you're in the right. Sucks to later find out you weren't.

Peace.
