Thanks to *emmejay-fwz for the great avatar!
It's well known to the best writers, the more you read, the better you write. Part of being a Master Debater (or Cunning Linguist) is being succinct in your writing. So the dAPF Source Library supports both *WordCount and ~da-library. The best places to find good writing.

Are you bored at home or work? Look through the Source Library and help us fill in blank spaces. We've got plenty of them. Sections marked
are particularly bare and need credible sources!

Nevertheless, I don't have anything right now. When I start from scratch I usually check Wikipedia's sources first and then make sure they're reliable and try google. Sometimes I know some of the major sources like the UN or government agencies, but in this case, I don't know the specific laws or companies making voting machines...

Also, if you see a source elsewhere in the Library you think id dubious, drop us a note or if you'd like to vouch for a source listed as dubious.
I try to only list sources that are very obviously dubious and only very reliable sources elsewhere (so that we don't get into Wikipedia-style bickering over the value of average sources). So in other words, I try to keep the top echelon of good sources and the bottom echelon of really terrible sources so we know what we can trust and what not to give the time of day.

I believe in Micro-Plate Tectonics but not Macro-Plate Tectonics. Sure, elevation can change a few inches here and there. But a few inches over millions of years could not possibly produce a mountain.
