[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP MY point is if it is not public information then why share!  The poster did share it, so tell where it came from...thats all!  If it is private informaion then keep it to yourself!  Do not disclose it and say its a fact, but its a secret fact ...Whatever!! Until I see it somewhere credible.. its an opinion. [/quote]

Facts that can be stated publicly may be based on data that one is not at liberty to disclose. I can think of things that I know as fact but of which I am not free to disclose the underlying numbers. I am not affiliated in any way with NCS; I just want to point out the difference between asserting a fact and supporting it with evidence. If the PP who stated that NCS has the highest SATs in town does not give you the supporting data, of course you are free to discount her assertion and deem it her opinion. You could assume that she doesn't have the data, but that assumption would not be logical. Just take the PP's assertion for what it's worth TO YOU.[/quote]
