35. NO posting system
A posting system is a bad idea, because we can't filter stories for being accurate, referenced, and valid. It would just devolve into another DU type discussion spot. It will take someone who is willing to check every day or two for new stories, and post them.

I would like to see only the most credible stories up there, so that journalists and others can safely use them as references and we don't come off as crackpots because of one or two wacky theories in the mix. I'm afraid that for this to get any attention at all from the people we are trying to reach, we must only provide evidence which holds up under scrutiny. We can, however, include a link to another section with "developing" or unsubstantiated theories that may or may not be true.
