On being wrong, a talk by Kathryn Schulz

This may be one of the best talks I've ever seen. Kathryn Schulz talks about being wrong. Take 20 minutes and watch the video. It's absolutely worth it. Okay, I'm reasonably certain it's worth it.

I have am a huge fan of your blog and am so grateful for the insight you share. I stumbled upon your blog a year or so back when I was searching for a link to explain to a friend who was not raised LDS about shaking hands with ghosts. So thank you.
I really enjoyed this video especially in conjunction with a documentary I recently watch called "Flight from Death" It is available on Netflix and hulu. It seems like something you would have some great thoughts on.

Thank you, Amanda Jean! I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond. I really appreciate your kind words.

I've added Flight From Death to my Netflix instant queue and expect to watch it soon. It looks like exactly the kind of thing I'd be very interested in. Thank you for the pointer!
