What I like about Sawyer besides the great stories and facts are the way he pounds logic. He is a teacher and seems to know it is best to submit many examples of logic so people can get used to thinking that way.

He sets up one logical situation after another then solves it using logic.

The only time I have caught him a little off, IMO was about the pro life debate. He tried to deduce it, but I think it is a dilemma and so has no solution, only a decision to be made.

I notice many people have trouble with basic logic. Especially on the right. Especially probability. But both.

I think our schools should be teaching those two subjects as full courses, several times.
