- dmm 13y agoI know what you're talking about but where does it end? Are all comparisons to the past that are anything but glowing about the present invalid?
- jamesaguilar 13y agoThey're not invalid, but lacking backing data they may have a high probability of being wrong.
- qq66 13y agoThis article is just one guys opinion. Why does it need backing data? He's not making policy recommendations.
- jamesaguilar 13y agoOpinions can also be wrong, depending on what they're about. As far as I can tell from the article, this is not one of those cases. He is simply relaying a story about one supposed advantage of the radio communication dark ages. But if you go from there to "Things (universal qualifier) were better before cell phones," then you have a problem. That often does happen in articles like this, although not this one.
