I'll keep this short. My brother in law works for Department of National Defence. I inform him the Russian Navy is harboured in Cyprus.  He says that is bullshit, NATO would never allow it. He gets angry with me. I invite him to Google it, but he refuses, saying it is bullshit. I tell my wife what happened and she says, " He works for DND, of course he is right".
