"A man hears what he wants to hear..."

More so now than when the song was was written, it seems.

Simon and Garfunkel also sang about insect repellant in the intro to Mrs. Robinson.

Kallend, I've always appreciated the way you listen to my view, thought it over and the neatly told me I was a dumb ass.

Now we know that whenever we Google a research topic we will receive biased responses. OK.

Previously, you pointed out that scientific evidence is of virtually no value in changing another person's belief system. OK.

It seems your research has determined that the SC forum is reduced to argument. Of course we all knew that but now it is official, verified by academic discovery of the highest order.

It is all out cyberwar. Form your alliances and choose your weapons.

Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

It seems that "A man hears what the market researchers think he wants to hear". Or more nefariously, what the ideologues at Google want him to hear.

Sometimes it's not about winning, it's about the process.

Yeah, but you organize a good big-way.

Insect repellent is good; worth a few measures in a song.

I don't think the actions are ANY more prevalent now that they ever were. I don't think the WWW is doign much of anything with regard to changing peoples' behaviors with it.

What the web does, however, is provide people an outlet. People can find more like-minded individuals with which to exchange ideas. Or, perhaps more appropriately, to provide a sense of validation to their ideas.

Because of the ease in finding these people it looks like it is more prevalent. I'll say I do not have the empirical evidence to back this up but I DO have a pretty strong opinion that the internet gives people the outlet to often anonymously post to the world their views.

They say what they want to say. People can hear what they want to hear. There are billions interconnected.
