2. Strong Opinion Alert

I will not be held liable for your own personal judgements. Gather the facts, listen to a variety of views, then reach your own decisions. Don't blame anybody (including me) for misleading you if you happen to fall on your face. Just pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and move on forward.
