“The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.” – Daniel J. Boorstin Boy, don’t we see this everywhere. I don’t know the real answer, but I suspect somewhere north of 80% of all content on the Internet is opinion, not fact, and definitely not knowledge. I watched a video recently which stated that a particular mix of liquids would preserve wood. It would also bring old wood back to new condition. I have a deck that needs resurfacing or rebuilding. I made this mix up and tried it out. No, it does not work as promised. I’m not sure why I was surprised. I use YouTube for all sorts of things and find that I’ll often need to watch several videos on the same subject before I find one that works. But, I’m happy to test things. I rarely take something at face value. Perhaps I’m just naturally sceptical. Perhaps it’s because I have found many instances where a promised outcome didn’t eventuate. The information I dug up about dementia is based on real medical studies, so I suspect it’s accurate. The studies behind it aren’t from the popular press. They’re from Framingham, the NIH, and the University of Queensland. In any case, this is the regime I’m now following, even though my wife doesn’t like the smell of sardines.
