Re: Buzz Aldrin - Our National Treasure, punches dude who doesn't believe
We all have blind spots, or blinding spots, as the case may be. If you take any somehow erroneous situation, anything from a mistake at work to a flawed belief, you'll find that it was some other aspect of the situation that prevented right thinking. For instance, let's say it's the end of the day and you're rushing to get things done and you sacrifice a quality check for expediency; you might make a mistake because speed had a higher priority than quality. In the same way, something about this theory does something for this guy that may potentially blind him to, possibly, a better way to look at it. 'Blinding spots' are similar...the glare put off by some ideas prevent one from seeing anything but that idea.
