One thing I've learned is that most people, myself included, are really pretty stupid. I think success in life comes when you learn to quickly cast off parts of your stupidity in the face of new evidence, as opposed to beating your head against a wall insisting you aren't stupid.

Are they smarter than thee? (You only have actual experience with the craziness of crowds.) It looks completely mental to me. Should be called "VOSP" for "visions of sugar plums" .
