Ignorance

The insight and knowledge a genetics or science professor has about the terrorism situation in the USA and Worldwide is about the same I have about their field of endeavor:Nothing! It's like asking a child his opinion on the subject. They are totally outside their area of expertise. Why do they say such foolish things? Because it plays into the offbeat eccentric profs, who always want to go the opposite of current wisdom, because they are unique, brilliant and full of themselves.
