As much as we humans are wrong, we should maintain humility (pretty easy recently) and know that we are going to be wrong going forward. As will our fellow humans, however bumbling or eloquent they seem. Given this, seek a margin of safety. You can do this through valuation, or you can do this through digging deeper and placing less reliance on the writings of others. Or ideally, both.

Frame it. Hang it on the wall. Put a 24-hour spotlight on it. Read it every day. And thank Pirah for that.

Very eloquently said Pirah, and consequently, I am tempted to believe you. But wait, as you said, eloquence may signify nothing but eloquence. So if you're right, and I shouldn't believe you, then you may well be wrong wrong. But how can you be both right and wrong? What a horribly delicious paradox!

Pirah,
That was, in my opinion, the best post I have read on any bulletin board.
