Today's Quote: On average, 8 out of 10 people will read headline copy, but only 2 out of 10 will read the rest. - Brian Clark

Today's Narrative: The lack of knowledge held by the average person is astonishing. As is the number of people who say they don't follow any daily news reports or have not read a book since high school. But the genuinely appalling nature of this is how the average person believes they know much more than they do and what that knowledge gap amounts to. This mostly leads to harmless bickering over weather patterns, political leaders, and sports teams. But when it doesn't, the average person's ignorance can lead them to follow unsavory characters or even become an unsavory leader in their own right. Knowing you have a problem is the first sign that you are better than that problem, and a good sign you have a grasp of your limits of knowledge is to acknowledge you indeed do have a limit to your knowledge.
