Recognize a real dime

This post will explore none of those questions.

That makes sense because only those who know really know. For the rest of us, it’s just conjecture and opinion.

But, perhaps, will can still draw some conclusions. Let’s try.

For instance, let’s say we lift up a rock and see a potato bug. A single, solitary wiggly potato bug on freshly exposed earth who suddenly feels very unsure of his status in the universe. What can we make of this?

Is he the only one? Might there be more, perhaps if we lift more rocks? Which is the simplest explanation?

I submit that the simplest explanation is that where there is one it is likely there are more. The alternative is that what you see is a one-time-only occurrence which, although possible, may not be the most probable possibility.

If this line of reasoning holds water, then perhaps our inquisitiveness about things like Bridgegate should explore a totally different direction.

In other words, what if Bridgegate is just the tip of the iceberg?
