Instead of supporting your outrageous claim you attack me. You have achieved boss level for Internet.

But how significant it is to be able to peer into the universe and have that thought!

I've had my chlorophyll of this, today.
It clearly stems from some problem weed rather not discuss.

Look at the top of the page and you will see that you are about to capture more than that.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

So... I had to change out a failed HD of a 2009 MacBook Pro. The iFixIt site suggested disconnecting the battery leads as a precaution. The entire swap (to a shiny new SSD) took about 15 minutes - first screw out to last screw in. Woo Hoo!
Then it's time to install OS X. Insert my (untested) bootable OS X USB drive.
Boot from it. Check!
Run Disk Utility and erase (format) new SSD. Check!
Run "Install OS X" and choose new partition. Check!
Error! Something like "This OS X installation file cannot be verified. It may have been tampered with or corrupted." Damn!
I repeat a couple times with identical results. 
I spend 45 minutes copying the original install file from my NAS to my iMac and recreate the USB drive. Fail - with the same message.
I spend 60 minutes re-downloading the install file from Apple and recreate the USB drive. Fail - with the same message.
30 seconds with Google (which I obviously should have done first) reveals that this error is common when the date on the Mac is way off - which happens when you disconnect the battery! 
Thankfully after setting the date via terminal the rest of the install and recovery from TimeMachine went smoothly.
Thanks Google!

Actually, I was just trying to be kind - as a mark of sympathy for your being an Apple owner.
