True. I use Kagi which supports its facts with citations. More than once I have read the cited material to find no trace of the so called facts.


Yeah I don't know how good citations are always... i mean i just read without a doubt the earth is flat [1]. I can now say for certain and without any sarcasm, this is actually fact. Because of my citation it must be true?

The point here is information is hard... unless you do your own thinking, your own testing, you can't be sure. But I agree references are nice.
