"Whenever you hear the word conspiracy, think stupidity." Don't remember
where I read that.
"Simple explanations are preferred to complicated ones." William of Ockham,
mid 19th century.
"The simplest explanation is always stupidity." Darwin Minor "Darwin's
Blade" - Dan Simmons, Harper Torch, 2000.

The point being, stupidity rules.

Allan



I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I'm a stupid theorist: the world is
controlled by very intelligent, very arrogant, extremely over-confident
people who seem to be terminally stupid to the extent that they can't see
the consequences of all their complicated plans and intrigues, with the
consequence that the rest of us suffer as a result.
