Excerpt from the Doonesbury Sunday comic, 6-Sept-2009:
Professor: "Americans believe in many things that can't be verified. For instance, almost half of us believe in ghosts, and 40% in alien abductions.... And of course, we still have many fringe groups, like the JFK grassy knollers and the staged moon landingists, etc."
Radio DJ: "Is there any counter to these powerful theorists?"
Professor: "Only the reasonists...." (continued below).
