No not really. That's just a small list of examples of when experts are wrong. Read The Experts Speak by Christopher Cerf and Victor Navasky. It's over 300 pages of that sort of thing. Experts are regularly wrong about what they are suppose to be experts on.

And they also are generally much more likely to be correct about anything than a complete non-expert.

JUst because doctors many times make medical mistakes does not mean that you should go to your plumber for heart surgery.

I'm Chinese.



Russia quite obviously baited Georgia into responding by using its proxies within South Ossetia to shell Georgian targets. The whole operation was carefully planned and executed by the Russians and I'm sure the timing was no coincidence. There will definitely be hurt feelings amongst the Chinese people and government over Russia's use of our Olympics as a cover for an invasion.

Nice try DinoDoc or whoever DL you are.

If you are Chinese, then I'm a Zimbabwean neurosurgeon.

He's Chinese, or at least has been pretending to be Chinese over on Eventis for years.

So how is neurosurgery in Zimbabwe?

We aren't talking about doctors. We're talking about military experts. Any so called expert of the second kind is going to be just as wrong if not more wrong than the average person.

I think a neurosurgeon would come off as more intelligent than you do.

Actually, you are the one that brought up the issue of experts in general and a doctor is most certainly an expert.

And no, an expert is not more likely to be wrong than a non-expert; to claim that is idiotic.

If you don't know why a doctor is more likely to give you a good answer to your question than a military (political) expert then you are the idiot.

Is this coming from an expert on the subject?

It's been researched and documented.

Our research has yielded thousands of examples of expert misinformation, disinformation...

There's a difference between controling it and destroying it,

Since we had no intention to annex or occupy Georigia I can't see how could we control it.

and whether the plan was a success or a failure.

Since their anti-aircraft defences are history now, we can freely bomb anything within their territory.

What is Eventis?
Sorry, but considering his perfect English and the fact that he registered here less than a month ago, I still think he is a DL.

Non-existent, I guess.

Your intentions don't make a lot of sense, nor do they make a difference to all the civilans being slaughtered.
Is it war games to you?

And I think Chinese would have a bit different attitude towards Russia (and less perfect English). You speak English like it's your native language.
So you are still a DL in my notepad.
