Exactly. This is why I asked him if he was kin to either of the two men mentioned below.🤣

On J****** 6, 1995, McArthur Wheeler and Clifton Earl Johnson robbed two Greater Pittsburgh banks at gunpoint without attempts to disguise themselves. Instead, they had covered their faces in lemon juice, believing it would make them invisible to security cameras. Johnson was arrested a few days later, while Wheeler was apprehended in April after being identified in surveillance photographs. Both received multi-year jail sentences. The robberies directly inspired the research of the Dunning–Kruger effect, which describes that people with little ability in a given field erroneously believe they excel in it.

I care because it is my country and I want it to survive hundreds of years into the future. I built significant parts of it that benefit many Americans. I have always enjoyed helping others, and still help my neighbors. And in my career, I helped millions have a better life by designing ports, navigation locks, water and wastewater facilities, restoration of the Everglades and Mississippi Delta, and established the legal right of the Corps of Engineers to control and prevent the continuing devastation of our waters and wetlands. Yes, I'm proud of my contributions to this planet and the people on it. And my body is pledged to United Tissue Network to help others use any useful parts, give the rest to a medical school, and if needed, used as a crash dummy for making cars safer. I certainly will not care .

And you have no clue what I have done for humanity on this planet. Certainly more than you ever thought about doing. Care to compare notes? I've helped millions have better lives and can prove it. Can you?

I didn't call you a childish name. Neither you nor a child would understand the meaning or significance of the term of the Dunning-Kruger effect as applied to your historical postings, "facts" and lack of sourced information.
No one believes that you're a walking encyclopedia just because you tell everyone that you know more than they do, and they tell lies but you don't.
You really should go write your historical book or biography. It may get some of that indignant hatred out of you.

Absolutely!

Well, you blew that one too. I know the term Dunning-Kruger effect and the inference to low intelligence, which makes it childish. I was the Author and or editor for the Environmental Impact Statements for 110 projects including 2 for foreign countries paid for by the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank. Yes. I have a vocabulary exceeding that of most Americans, and it was also influenced by the medical profession including having worked with brain damaged people for a 6 month stint. That and being married to an RN with a 4 year degree. So yes, I have no problems understanding English and 4 or more syllable words. You make assumptions and are wrong every time. And I did not call you of low intelligence. But since you are accusing me of low intelligence, I'll put my IQ up against yours any time.

You sound just like Biden from an April 1987 C-SPAN clip and archived news reports. In the C-SPAN footage, Biden, who was running for the Democratic p**********l nomination in the 1988 e******n, answers a question about his academic record during a campaign stop in New Hampshire.

https://www.politifact.com/article/2020/may/07/ad-watch-fact-checking-video-about-bidens-academic/

"I went to law school on a full academic scholarship, the only one in my class who had a full academic scholarship," Biden said. "The first year in law school, I decided I didn’t want to be in law school and ended up in the bottom two-thirds of my class. And then decided I wanted to stay, went back to law school and, in fact, ended up in the top half of my class."

Biden also claimed he "graduated with three degrees from undergraduate school."

"I’d be delighted to sit down and compare my IQ to yours if you’d like, Frank," he said.

NN? Can I ask an honest, non-insulting question? You don't have to prove anything but what do you do that effects millions. I truly have missed what you do.

I personally work for Walmart and help tens (not a typo) of people. I can't fathom millions!

You're Really Not That Smart: The Dunning-Kruger Effect
How do you get through to someone who thinks they know it all?

Excerpt
The Dunning-Kruger Effect is a cognitive bias named for two authors of a journal article describing how people overestimate their competence or cognitive abilities and don't realize these errors. The issue isn't just that people make poor choices from erroneous conclusions —it's also that they are unable to recognize those errors.

To understand the Dunning-Kruger Effect, let's break it down into parts.

Lack of Knowledge

In the Dunning-Kruger effect, the less someone knows about a topic, the more they are likely to have strong opinions about that topic. This means that if you are arguing a point with someone that has beliefs that are not rooted in facts, that person will stick to their opinion even when presented with evidence to the contrary. That person will also disregard expert opinions. The person may tell you that the expert opinion is "f**e," the expert was "paid off" to give that opinion, or he or she may just talk over you so that you can't get your facts heard. Since you can't prove that something didn't happen, you walk away frustrated, while the other person is more entrenched in his or her beliefs.

Misinformation Endorsement

Dunning-Kruger means that people will endorse erroneous information if it fits their opinion. Misinformation endorsement means that someone doesn't do their work in researching sources to see if they are legitimate. It also means that independent research is not done, so beliefs are not challenged by other information.

Anyone Is Susceptible

Think you're immune to the Dunning-Kruger Effect? Nope. Being prone to the Dunning-Kruger effect has little to do with intelligence quotient or morals. Anyone is prone to this cognitive bias. And just because you are in a certain profession does not mean that you follow the counsel of a fellow professional.

Nothing significant in the news. I just see more announcements about what they are going to do. Nothing about proof of anything. Just accusations so far. When are they going to take on trump and
kids for violating the emoluments clause?

Dick Nicholson, every president starting with LBJ until today has driven our country closer to the edge of the abyss. Everything FJB does is meant to put more money in his pocket and the pockets of his family. He's working for himself instead of our country.

Dick Nicholson, with all of this intelligence you have, you are still a l*****t Democrat? Sounds pretty hard for me to believe. If the DNC is able to fool"smart" people like you, the rest of us are screwed..

You have helped people, notably your own family, turn away from God. Nothing you have ever done for good is comparable with what you have done for evil. When it's time to compare notes I'll allow He who you deny decide. You shall remain that ignorant person were told that: Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good!

You do have an unnatural need to "toot your own flute." Do you see or hear of any Christians saying how good they are and how much good they do or have done for their fellow man? The reason is because we Christians know we are sinful creatures in need of a Savior and you, as an athiest, think you decide good and evil and "so what" if you make a mistake and choose evil? You answer only to your miserable, self-aggrandizing self.
