So get this. My grandparents used to buy these huge encyclopedia sets that cost a ton of money but if you want to know immediately what the population of India was that was the only way you could find out.

Now I don't even need to get off the couch to google "What is the population of india" on my smartphone!

Speaking of which, what should I do with a set of Encyclopedias that I inherited?

I saved one set of some type of "Geography Encyclopedia" from the early 60's. Kind of interesting to go back and read the wikipedia pages of countries 50 years later.

Your graphs stop at 2014. So that's probably ok then.

I might add ""Fact Checking" organization are increasingly partisan, both in the issues they choose to evaluate and how they evaluate them" to the list.

violent crime rates are 50% less than they were 25 years ago. you are delusional.

You might go back and read what I said. You also might stop and ask yourself, WGAF what violent crime was like 25 years ago if violent crime is suddenly on the rise now? If there was a sudden measles epidemic in this country, people wouldn't be saying "yeah, but compared to the 1800s...."

People moving back into their parents' house after they get their participation certificate from college.

That's actually a good one I overlooked. Better update the list.

One data point out of 25 is statically an anomaly until proven a trend? Also, perspective matters :dunno: so many false equivalencies.

I'm not quite sure why you are comparing a hypothetical non existent "sudden rise" in violent crime to a hypothetical non existent "sudden measles epidemic", but it does make for an interesting read. now do hypothetical alien invasion and pretend people that have all recently lost insurance coverage due to obamacare.
