Some folks, including some of very lofty status on FR,
seem to have an incapacity or unwillingness to face a lot of facts
. . . not to mention a lot of probable facts.
By the time there’s obviously and overtly no longer ANY doubt on such things, they will likely be on various lists for termination and near to the deed.
What is it about folks addiction to thinking that a TYPE II ERROR is more benign than a TYPE I ERROR when both can be as deadly as the other!
Wishful thinking and fears . . . as well as terminal insecurities about facing unprecedented change and looming hoors may have a part.
My hunch is they are simply trying to protect themselves, their wife or children who are involved in the program and for that I cannot abuse them. More than likely, I would do the same.
