None of those things actually happened, of course. They were hatched and cultivated on the Internet and talk radio, both of which function like dating services for the like-minded mentally ill. Unfortunately, plenty of people buy into the bull. Over half of those polled in a 1997 Scripps Howard/Ohio University survey believed the paranoid lie about crack cocaine.

当然，上面的这些事件都不是真的。它们只是在网络和收音节目中孕育生存，both of which function like dating services for the like-minded mentally ill. Unfortunately, plenty of people buy into the bull. 在1997年的Scripps Howard/Ohio University的联合调查统计中发现，超过半数的受访对象对关于快克可卡因的迷幻谎言确信无疑。还记得环球航空的长岛空难吗？造成230名乘客死亡。超过三分之一的人说是自己的军队打下了这架飞机。
