Here is what I changed the methodology section to:

VGChartz collects a percentage of sales numbers from retailers in North America, Japan, Europe, and the other major video game markets to estimate the overall sales of each console. The retailer sample sizes are small compared to professional tracking services such as NPD, but they often fall within reasonable margins of error. The NPD has often criticized VGChartz for its data collecting methods.[1]

You have to not have any "we's" or say just about anything positive about VGChartz unless it is corroborated by actual information. You have to be very neutral.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
