Solipsism:The skeptics tool

While just surfing the internet ..more specifically the Wikipedia.....i came across a term known as solipsism....what is really good is this word is an expression of a free mind which needs no god ,only thyself.
even the great minds used it as a skeptic technique to establish rationalism or to counter superstition.

According to Greek Sophist Gorgias-(source:Wikipedia)

• Nothing exists
• Even if something exists, nothing can be known about it.
  
• Even if something could be known about it, knowledge about it can't be communicated to others.

According to Descartes (algebra guy):(source:Wikipedia)

The foundations of solipsism are in turn the foundations of the view that the individual's understanding of any and all psychological concepts (thinking, willing, perceiving, etc.) is accomplished by making analogy with his or her own mental states; i.e., by abstraction from inner experience.

This is just for starters ,more detailed non wikipedia data will be made available for Solipsism.
