Common sense at last.

Which goes to prove even Einstein can get it wrong (we won't mention quantum
theory). Do you know many 18 year olds with common sense?


Whooooooooooosh. And point proved, I think.


No , not whoosh and point not proved. Common sense is something you aquire
as you get older. Him trying to equate it with something being fixed when
young is plain wrong. He wasn't trying to make the point that because
teenagers were clueless than means everyone who claims common sense is also
clueless - thats simply your reading of it.
