`::Sorry but I can't spent the rest of my wp:life trying to explain what I think is sufficiently explained over a never ending discussion. This single sentence has 11 refs covering almost every word of it. What I input is just what the refs say, nothing more, nothing less, check it. Did you read the text below? Do you have any objection or suggestion in putting it to the article? Do you think that the appropriate position is in the ``Basic views`` chapter? I strongly believe that a para must be added as to explain more thoroughly what constitutes this influence.

If I may, I can't understand at all why from the start you were so opposed in mentioning it.    `
