Your own words bite you right in the ass, and you don't even realize it.
I'm going to re-post this, just so everyone can read what RR said about accepting my witness testimony about gremlins eating wheels off of a Dodge Charger (bold and italics are mine):
I think that the observation of a gremlin either by myself or others (or something that fits that description) is sufficient evidence that it exists. As to the number... I don't know if there is a absolute value (there are a number of variables), and it depends on the testimony itself, and how good it is. If I seen it, then a couple of other people to confirm what I saw and not hallucinating; I think would be sufficient (because I can rule out lying at least in myself). And if there isn't reason against it, a few more from testimony alone.
How would you make a distinction between true observation and hallucination, RR? Via testimony?
