| Totally Useless Information |
Knowledge ---------------- |
| Actually, information is pretty much not specific. And yeah, it's useless and not so important. You see, Somesite is not interested in these types of information, and if this and Abstracts were the only types of information we supported, we'd slap ourselves in the head. But knowing that we're such a nice person, I graciously accepted this place. But, true, if we have around hundreds of these, some may actually be a fact. |
