Cognitive Biases - A Visual Guide (Explains a great deal in a small amount of time.)

It may take a couple of tries to get it to present properly and don't forget to zoom in so you can read it (there's a toolbar at the bottom with zoom magnifiers) I picked 'scrolling' to read it - but there are a number of choices.
This is an eye opener. I read it first to feel vindicated by the number of my boss's biases I have already identified that drive me nuts. But then I went back to try and root out my own. This will actually help me deal with him more effectively - actually, with a lot of people. It will also help me approach observation, decision-making and assessment more effectively myself as I can watch out for these pitfalls of perception.

Yes, it is fascinating to watch religious people pick and chose what parts of science are true. Usually depends on what they need.

Ow! - I just hurt my head. And yes, guilty, guilty, guilty . . . much more than I am embarrassed to say.
But what an excellent resource, especially with links to the wiki write-up for each one. I'll have to come back to this trough of wisdom soon - and often. Thanks
