  • The best way to look wise
    Wiliam Butler Yeats said the same thing in a poem, quite some
    time ago.

    "Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity."

    It is always easiest to seem wise by being negative in the face of
    overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Surely, to say such a silly
    thing with a straight face, he must have some insight! But of
    course that isn't so. He is really just as silly as he sounds. In reply to: "Andrew Keen, the Web's Darth Vader?"
