“It is important in this context to bear in mind that the words ‘unintended’ and ‘unforeseeable’ are by no means synonymous.  A British bureaucrat couldn’t predict lava during a volcanic eruption.”  -Theodore Dalrymple

Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best has quit due to the City Council caving to leftwing activists.  So I make an important prediction:  Murders will go up compared to cities that do not make cuts (e.g. Boston?).  I put a reminder in my phone & plan to update you a year from now.

The people who discover things are a little nutty. Many times genuine visionaries also believe outlandish bs -- consider Newton's obsession with alchemy for example. So we cannot discount a person merely because they believe stupid, weird stuff.

My own political philosophy is very plain and humble; I can trust the uneducated, but not the badly educated.  –GK Chesterton
