 ::::Just to be clear, I'm not taking issue with the use of quotes, but you have to make it clear that you are using them as quotes.  In other words, you should write ""according to so-and-so"" or something like that, before you present the quote.  As written, it looks like fact, as opposed to the opinion of a particular person.  Sorry if I wasn't clear about my concern earlier.  "
