Exactly. You'd probably not believe some of the stuff I've read on other sites that's suppose to be "true" and I read it and think "ha! I can think of the PLEBA thread where that came from."
I guess I just don't see the point to this thread now that the question has been addressed and answered (xtal's post is the closest we've got to an answer). I think the original question was fair enough, but it's been answered: there are no known sources that say how Bono proposed. I realize no one means any harm. However, why keep posting about things that go against the wishes of the people you're posting about? Honestly this thread wouldn't have been such a big deal to me a year ago, but now owning alihewson.com and having certain sources politely remind me of what they consider acceptable and what they consider an invasion of their privacy, I'm seeing these things from a different point of view than I used to. Based on my more recent experience, personally I feel that this is a good example of threads here recently that are going over the top and making me very uncomfortable, being in the position that I'm in. I'm not going to elaborate further than this b/c I don't feel I should have to.
