Sherlock Holmes II on BS

"It is one of those cases where the art of the reasoner should be used rather for the sifting of details than for the acquiring of fresh evidence. The tragedy has been so uncommon, so complete and of such personal importance to so many people, that we are suffering from a plethora of surmise, conjecture, and hypothesis. The difficulty is to detach the framework of fact—of absolute undeniable fact—from the embellishments of theorists and reporters. Then, having established ourselves upon this sound basis, it is our duty to see what inferences may be drawn and what are the special points."

- Sherlock Holmes

Basically there is a lot of BS out there. But how can there not be? I mean BS leads back to the age old question of what is truth. Truth doesn't exist only perspective thus if there are all these perspectives & everyone has a different perspective floating around then it's easy to get confuzzled and there's some other stuff in there too.
