[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 866768, member: 22880"] What do you want me to do, put up PDF's of internal memos, complete with signature blocks and handwritten notes? Honestly, you've got to be kidding. There is no way to put up "proof" that would stand up to the "rules of evidence". All that can be done is to report on what has been seen, and then try to use publically available information to create as many "dots" as possible - then rely on the reader's ability to use inductive reasoning to make a conclusion regarding the probability of accuracy of the information. Putting up just a single PDF of a memo, would reveal WAY too much about the source of the information. I can illustrate this quite vividly, without causing too much alarm. The poster who goes by the name of "JaxFedEx"... His employee number is 838381 and his manager goes by "Billy"... I'm not going to post his name, since that would violate BC rules. [I]"JaxFedEx", I'm not trying to scare you, but you do give the opportunity to prove a point...[/I] He hasn't made any defamatory statements regarding FedEx, so he is [U]absolutely safe[/U], but I do this just to point out how easy it is to pin point individuals if a few - seemingly irrelevant bits of information - are disclosed. It took a phone call and all of two minutes to get this information back. If I know it, you can be assured that the Media Relations Dept. knows it as well - or could find out if they wanted to in about 2 minutes time... Releasing seemingly innocent, or redacted bits of information can result in a a narrower and narrower picture of where that information came from, and more importantly - who released it. I think you (and others) can see where attempting to give "proof" would only endanger those who provide the information, and not do any better job of convincing those reading these posts, of the accuracy of the information. If PDF's were posted, how would you know if they were "genuine" or merely generated by the poster? This is why the most important tool you have is between your ears - your brain. Use it to analyze the information you see, then engage in inductive reasoning and ask questions to clarify or expand understanding (which you've become rather good at doing). Continue to ask questions, connect the dots on your own, then choose a course of action which is best for you. [/QUOTE]
