So basically... it solves Wikipedia's biggest (and it is big) problem. Of course, it retains a few of its own--the potential to be less democratic and more biased than Wikipedia.
Why Danielle Steel is 'critic-proof.'
Great Unread Books: Which classic are you ashamed to admit you have never read? "Would the eminent Cambridge classicist admit to The Iliad? Would V S Naipaul's old editor cop to A Bend In The River?

You’ve said you had a hard time on the set avoiding the giggles. What do you think about to stay serious? [...] What do you do? Pinch yourself?
