Reminds me of this article I read a while back: http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/frontal-cortex/2012/06/daniel-kahneman-bias-studies.html Oh and this one too: http://lifehacker.com/5944221/you-cant-be-effective-when-youre-too-smart-for-your-own-good?utm_source=io9.com&utm_medium=recirculation&utm_campaign=recirculation

sed 's/fat/hot/g'
