Amy, it seems like the internet is a force of nature in its own right. The more it grows and swells perhaps the more difficult it is to harness for a unified purpose such as research.

Google scholar is a good tool to use for literature research, but even then it’s easy to see how many academic conflicts of interest there are.

Random, but I love their quote, “stand on the shoulders of giants.”

Take care.

Jacqueline, I never really thought about this until I read this post. There’s so much information out on the web and a lot of conflicting messages. I can certainly understand how it can raise anxiety levels. I recently did some research online and found so many different and conflicting “expert” viewpoints that I felt more frustrated than I did before the research.

Thank you for posting this. Amy
