1. Satan thinks people are stupid. I mean really, really stupid. So jaw-droppingly, unbelievably stupid that I'm having trouble expressing it properly without resorting to profanity.
2. So far, we're not exactly proving him wrong.
Tam multa, ut puta genera linguarum sunt in hoc mundo: et nihil sine voce est.
I'm taking a break from blogging for a bit, exact timetable undetermined. In the meantime, feel free to contact me by email.

@Wm - Yes, indeed. I can't see any limit to the actual in-real-life stupidity of people in 2020: they will apparently believe anything. Even/ especially when contradicted by personal observation and common sense. This thing is commoner among cleverer people. A piece I wrote in 2009 about 'clever sillies' doesn't get it quite right; but struck a chord sufficiently that it ended up one of the 'most cited' and discussed of my later papers:

Thanks for linking to your paper, Bruce. I had not read that one before.
