Part one of a five part series on the Dunning-Kruger effect, by Errol Morris.

Also note that Oscar winning director Morris’s next project is a dark comedy that is a fictionalized version of the founding of Alcor!
Ooh, it’s nice to see more details on the lemon juice bank robber. When I first heard about him I thought he was probably schizophrenic. Maybe he was, but the details make it sound like he may indeed have been just really stupid.
Isn’t that a bad thing? I suspect a major source will be that recent book...
I thought that Morris’s 30 minute interview with Saul Kent showed a favorable perspective on cryonics, or at least a true non-bias.
Watch and decide for yourself:
