This made me chuckle and think of the old saying...."my mind is made up, don't confuse me with the facts."
Human cognitive process and decision making processes are fascinating studies in the use of applied implausibility.
Cyn, I found a link to the work book for that course I told you about eons ago on The Art Of Critical Decision Making. Remove all sharp objects from the immediate vicinity before reading this: The Art of Critical Decision Making

I do remember you telling me about this. Thanks for finding it. I am wading through it now. I'm glad I took your advice about sharp objects though. You know I always think it's purposeful this refusal to look at the facts, but after reading the chapter that picks apart that fateful climb up Mt. Everest I will have to reevaluate. There are other factors at play surely. Nobody purposely makes choices that are lethal. Well nobody who isn't planning suicide that is.
