MY REVIEW

                               his qualifications.  However, none of this information seems to be verifiable.

2. ACCURACY:    Sources are not  identified within the web site. The information is very specific, but has not verification links or sources. The
                               information can be found on other sites. The site has accurate basic grammar and spelling.
