So it sounds like only getting my news from the Economist is actually a pretty good call, though I should probably start watching Stewart & Colbert.
Seriously, the more I learn about cognitive biases, the more I wish I'd had them beaten into me all through grade school. It would have been way more useful than a lot of the stuff we studied. I'm sure I fall into a lot of these traps.
