WHY AM I DOING THIS?

I am doing this because nutrition, diet, and exercise are
thing we can actually control.  If we educate ourselves and.  the next generation, we have a much better chance at a higher quality of life for a longer duration, and also less expensive government.  The way things are, health care costs are  
skyrocketing.  If we get healthier, costs will go down, taxes will fall, and we'll all be happier all around!

artificial intelligence, natural stupidity.

according to popular legends and urban myths … Amos Tversky is said to have said …

My colleagues, they study artificial intelligence; me, I study natural stupidity.

this, from CoEvolving Innovations which seems like a fascinating resource.

The blog entry there talks about Daniel Kahneman  and Amos Tversky.

The topic is fascinating.  The question of how intelligence and stupidity are related is fascinating.

There’s also a reference to Daniel Kahneman, Paul Slovic, and Amos Tversky book Judgment under uncertainty: Heuristics and biases,  that I now feel compelled to investigate

interesting factoid …Kahneman  was awarded the 2002 Nobel Prize in economic sciences  despite being a psychologist, not an economist.  Which goes to show you … that Forrest Gump’s Mom was right  “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.”
