As the great sage Pooh would say, Oh bother. Tut tut looks like rain.
“If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear." More from the great Pooh.

Some would claim those were great sources, but I won't bother to debate you on the merits of either as it is clear where your opinion is on the matter. But, I would argue that it is better to have some sources rather than none sited and I have sited a few sources I do believe during this long dialogue if one is but to look.

Or they are just so tired of all the poo slinging, thesis driven answers of the I only know this because I read it on Google and know how to word my statements so it isn't exactly plagiarism, but pretty darn close. Fluff in my ears no, mist in my eyes words are blurred no, just live by this "keep it simple stupid". My belief if we keep it simple we can understand, even the simple minded people like me.

I just have a problem with Wikipedia as anyone can write in ANYTHING they want regardless of whether it is accurate or not.

I agree. Then people take that one single source as the gospel and do not do additional research. Many of the things on there are not quiet right, factually speaking.

Exactly why I try to site more than one article, web source, etc. to confer a point. Albeit, there may be other articles out there refuting it, and I'm always open minded to those who would like to cite such articles. Not that simply citing ones own opinion is not valid in as much as ones opinion or personal feelings are valid to each individual. Simply put, as regards ultra... one could hybridize a cornduran back to a corn snake enough times and select for key traits one would desire and no one would be the wiser. There would be no proof unless one supplied others with proof of what one had done as appears to be the case with the ultra gene as referenced on ians site already.

RE: Wikipedia.
Accuracy of Wikipedia must be quoted and have links and is continually monitored (not 100% but they try very hard to do so).
It's an open source informational data base, which will be more accurate in the long run, if sources are followed and verified (on the bottom of the page) than anything you will ever find with the main stream media.
Generally the people adding to Wikipedia have a personal and developed interest in the subject they are adding to. Many times people can add crap, but then it is flagged and a source is required to be referenced or it is deleted (as much as they can keep up).
Basically what I am saying is that Wikipedia IS one of the best and most forward sources out there IF you follow the provided links and verify the validity of the origin.
(Sorry, I just hate this misconception that Wikipedia sucks when it absolutely does not)

No red words!
There implications and ramifications to the use of red words: red can be used say in a quote to denote that part of the quote one disagrees with or finds disagreeable, hence seeing red. One can object to the use of red words for many reasons political i.e. Communism is associated the color red; religious red denotes blood i.e. the blood shed by Jesus to atone for the sins of man; red is also the color associated with love i.e. Valentine hearts are generally red, red roses, cherry chocolates used to be a very popular candy for Valentines day. This concept cherry chocolates could be multi-layered red of the cherry for love, chocolate by considered an aphrodisiac, the center is all soft and juicy and went you bite into it, it kind of oooozes into your mouth. Red is also a hot color associated with the flames of hell. Red faced is embarrassment. Red Hat Ladies proud of their status in society so they wear hats of red and even purple (ah purple my favorite, it also has many meanings I think it is a very happy/gay color).
One could also argue red is not a true color even if it is tertiary 'red, blue, yellow' some consider truer colors 'cyan, magenta, yellow and black'.
So on the merits of red there are many opinions and uses.
