But what you state as fact you can never really be sure is fact. It is what you can accept as fact.

That has been a hard lesson for me to learn. I've heard "facts" stated on this board that I have personal knowledge they are not true, yet the majority can shout a person like me down because it is peer group acceptance that wins out in the end.

The history of the Vietnam war and probably every other war in our history is written by people who never lived it and I'm sure there are many truths in it and more than likely some facts that are not true.
