Actually, that's not true. The reason I'm so FREQUENTLY "right" is
because a) I try to avoid discussing things I don't know or understand
and b) I attempt to avoid blanket generalizations. I know. Sometimes I
fail. Such is life.

By the way, "always" and "right about everything" are both examples of
blanket generalizations. Thanks for providing them. They helped in my
illustration.
