Difficult Things To Learn On The Internet

I used to tell people that "If you can't buy it on eBay, then it probably doesn't exist." Of course, that was long before Google came along and dominated the entire internet with their search technology. No matter what the subject, Google has something to say about it. Give it a try, type anything into Google and press "search." There will be thousands of results to choose from, each claiming to be the "Know all, End all" experts on your topic. Sometimes there will be millions of results.

Knowing that, I have to wonder:

Just because you can find information on the internet doesn't mean it is safe to use? Here are a few areas where you might want to proceed with caution:

1. Do It Yourself Brain Surgery - I wasn't sure what I would find with this search, but as you can see, someone actually tried it in an attempt to cure her chronic fatigue syndrome. Hmmmm... What would have happened if she had dozed off halfway through the procedure? Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Don't do it. It could kill you.

2. Build And Fly Your Own Spaceship - Not only can you build it and fly it but it is available in kit form! This might be a fun project and impress all of your friends and neighbors but don't do it. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. It could kill you.

3. Cure Yourself Of Cancer - I am not looking to start any fights here. I know that there are huge numbers of people who believe that they have cured themselves of terminal diseases. I am just saying that you probably can find the answers with a simple Google search, but don't do it. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. It could kill you.

4. How To Build You Very Own Nuclear Reactor - Yep! This is real and the link takes you to the instructions. This topic seems to have a huge following among the nerds of the world. (I mean that in a nice way!) To read more about some of the more current garden shed reactors, go to The Open Source Fusor Consortium. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Don't do it. It could kill you.

5. Is some sort of nuclear explosive devise more your style? Instructions for that can be found at HOW TO BUILD HOMEMADE NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR PEACFUL & DEFENSIVE PURPOSES. Defensive nuclear bombs? Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Don't do it. It could kill you.

6. How To Sell Your Own Home - There are over 76 million results to this search! Most of these results are for FSBO companies who will put homes on the MLS for a flat rate. Most of them will not help with negotiations, appointments or any hands on work to get it sold. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Don't do it. While it won't kill you like the others will, it could cost you tens of thousands of dollars! We can show you how to use a real estate agent, be protected, and still end up with more money in your pocket than you would if you sold it yourself.

Use a real estate agent and use the extra money to hire a surgeon for your brain surgery. Or maybe you could spend it on a DIY spaceship kit!
