The dangers of certainty

I was impressed by this 1970s video clip.

The danger of certainty is exactly why I promote non-government solutions to human problems. Laws are dramatically more difficult to revise or eliminate than anything in the private sector (including science). Laws lack the flexibility seemingly required to accommodate the reality of fallible humans with poor information.

I think this post either sets or ties the record for the time it takes to prove the certainty of Godwin's Law.

ns3,

I had to look that up!  Thanks for broadening my horizon.  I had not a Clue before I read that last post about Godwin's Law; all this time I thought Hitler did it in the changeroom with cyanide.

I was unaware of Godwin's law also.  Good stuff.

I probably should have watched the whole youtube to be fair but it was hard to get past the initial equation of certainty=the holocaust.
