Andrew, a newssource is not "reasonably
good" when it sensationalizes minor
stories and even prints patent falsehoods. I arrived at the conclusion that
the Register is not a reliable source after not just this awful mess of an
article, but several others on varied topics. Such as one once used as the
primary source of info in the FA-class Guinea pig article ...
Um. I think this demonstrates the problem. You can be a good source on
some topics and a terrible source on others...
...so why did anyone imagine a site known solely for specialist
technical journalism would be dealing with *guinea pigs* as anything
but "and in amusing filler news..."?
