On researching cognitive bias I came across Enemies of Reason by Professor Richard Dawkins. The program originally aired on Channel 4. This discovery coincided with my browsing around on YouTube this time researching, um, YouTube. As a result I now know how to create a playlist and have the series of five YouTube clips roll in one continuous play. Another coincidence perhaps, but this could be what I was looking for for another project of mine. My God, that’s it! Eureka!

Ahem. Sorry ’bout that.

If you don’t have an hour now, bookmark the page and come back to watch Episode One later. It’s very good.

[Don't see anything? Watch it on YouTube.]

So, having watched it again I’m wondering why these questions remain unanswered:

Is “being distracted as evidenced by this post” itself a cognitive bias, or is “one thing leading to another?” Hmmm…once again, I’m buggered, daggit!
