-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Wikipedia good resource

I just read something in the morning paper about grade-school children 
being able to change info on this site very easily.  I wonder how 
accurate the information might be if kids can change it for the fun of 
it?  

The Cincinnati Enquirer 2/26/06  "Easy manipulation makes Wiki suspect" 
 "Librarians: Take online encyclopedia with big grain of salt."  It's a 
lengthy article .
