No, nobody means nobody. If I describe places here it makes them actually unvisitable. It's a situation out of a Golding novel, perhaps, and best 'exemplified' by this site - http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/7185 - which is in the field beside a busy road, on a bus route and just a mile outside a small town. Nobody believes anything unless it's in a book first - that's the bottom line. It doesn't have to be a good book - any old thing'll do - but it must be written down.
