Have you noticed how many people these days don’t know what an analogy is? If I say to John Doe, “that’s the pot calling the kettle black,” frequently John Doe will go around telling everybody I called him an ugly pot. It’s quite disturbing. I’ve also noticed that many Americans believe the definition of “possible” is “probable”—which it’s not. Many Americans also firmly believe correlation is the same thing as causation—again, it’s not. (sigh)
