In Case You Weren't Depressed Yet

90% of us are too stupid to have an opinion
9% of us are clever enough to deceive ourselves
The remaining 1%? Doesn't exist. There was a counting error in the first 99%.

Think I'm kidding?

Kling does link to a very interesting site about bias - which is even more depressing.

Why do we bother to try and persuade anyone, then?

    "Why do we bother to try and persuade anyone, then?"

    I wonder that myself every time I think about my mother-in-law. We've been trying to persuade her that we do love her for years, but she's decided to be perpetually offended by us no matter what we do.
