I’ve had a post about bacteriology and mycology in the works for sometime, but as I’ve yet to finish it off here’s a link to a study titled The paradox of human expertise: why experts get it wrong. I generally defer to the experts as they are the experts. Sometimes, the status quo is incorrect and people new to the scene or uneducated in what the current thinking is come up with radical ideas that are later shown to be vidicated. So in honour of those times when those not in the know are actually ahead of the curve, here’s the link: The paradox of human expertise: why experts get it wrong.
