Have you seen the stuff on Yahoo Answers?

Post by piller »

I go to Yahoo Answers some, and I have noticed that the top answerers are mostly wrong, or seem to be able to B.S. their way through a lot. Has anyone else seen that?

In the hunting area, JD recently stated that a 50 BMG round would cause problems if necked down. It is already done in the .416 Barrett. It may have been him who told someone that the instant heat handwarmers used a liquid fuel and had to be lit. The asker was talking about the ones with dry powder inside which are air activated. Some of the others have said that Puma rifles are no longer made. Others will tell people to never buy a lever action, although in one thread the replies went about 50/50 for and against lever actions. The people with the most chosen answers were against leverguns. Is that enough? Funny thing, the top answerers are usually people who admit to limited hunting experience.

At least some of the answers aren't stuff. Our own, and well missed, Doc Hudson has posted there...
