Thinking about the lengths people will go to to lend plausibility to their unrealistic assessments of people and situations, avoiding the people, refusing to consider clearly relevant facts, basically resisting as much of their own experience as necessary to maintain the coherence of their beliefs. Seems like a lot of work without much in the way of real benefit to me.

Anyway, lovely day out, just back from a stroll down the Dirty Needles path with Peretz, going to do a crossword, then head to Amherst to sing my little broken heart out.
