“Researchers have found that merely asking people to assume their initial judgment is wrong, to seriously consider why that might be, and then make another judgment, produces a second estimate which, when combined with the first, improves accuracy almost as much as getting a second estimate from another person.”
Philip E. Tetlock, Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction

Craig D. Lounsbrough
“I would encourage you not to confuse a passing drizzle with a brainstorm. Because if you do, it won’t take a meteorologist to tell you what’s coming, and it’ll take more than an umbrella to protect you from it.”
Craig D. Lounsbrough
