Unfortunately, in today's world so many of us only want to hear things that coincide with what we want to believe rather than the facts.
Facts are often a very painful thing to hear especially when I see the scales over 210 lbs. I liked the One Blood scales before the took the lbs off even if the scale was faulty. The scale would say 205 when it really should have been 209.

They do have a more accurate scale now.

I used to abstract business articles in regional business magazines for Area Business Data Bank put out by Information Access Company then of Belmont, CA. Anyway my editor Robert Lee wanted me to just stick to the facts as much as possible which usually involved numbers like $ earned, $ lost, profit, market share, # of employees, etc. I would try to amuse myself and my editors by sticking puns in the abstracts.
