I /do/ realize I'm breaking open an awful kettle of worms with this
remark but ...
There will come a time when you WILL accept research you can't
verify. Some truths were known by a bare handful of people and when
they ceased contributing to the oxygen shortage, verification became
impossible. Some truths were duly recorded, sealed, and
acknowledged in books that fell prey to hurricane, fire, damp,
dry-rot, field-mice or silverfish a century or more ago. When that
time comes, for any of us, we /have/ to accept what's unverifiable
as "best information available."
