Brutha, how do you or I know that you are not hallucenating? Where's the evidence to prove it. How do you, or I know you are not brainwashed, or decieved? How will you or I know you have not read the wrong books, listened to the wrong 'experts' (Remember asbestos, ddt. 'Experts' prescribed heroin for babies)? Or that you have misconstrued the information, or that your memory is playing tricks on you? Have experiments been conducted to prove beyond doubt that you are not wrong, or that none of the above is true. Even then, how will you or I know that the experiments have used the correct measuring instruments? That was Michelson's and Morley's error. How do you or I know 'experts' are 'experts'?
