Ten obviously wrong observations

10. You don't even know the back of your hand as the proverbial "back of your hand". (Its full of a whole bunch of flexors and tensors and veins and siesmoid bones and what not - one of the anatomically most complicated portions of the human body because of the number of joints and the accompanying muscles)

09. The wierdest thing that you believe in, despite what everyone else says, could be the most absolute truth our descendants will know (eg: Darwinian evolution)

08. Collectively, everyone, always, is behid the times.

07. No matter what you believe most in, you are standing on very fragile ground (eg. god)

06. Not even black or white is black and white (duh)

05. The past almost always shifts from being our birthright to our stigma (eg. The British Raj)

04. The most ideal approaches fails miserably in the "real world" (eg. Beurocracy)

03. The exceptions to the rule are the problem (eg. VIPs)

02. Most observations focus on the situation but not the point (any new skyscrapers built have to take invulnerability to aeroplanes as one of their design factors)

01. Systems based on treating all humans as equals turn out to be horribly wrong because of inequality amongst the humans (eg. democracy)
