He equiped himself to avoid cops, and only announced his success after the time had run out for giving him a ticket. 1 I hate math

I just found your blog and after over an hour of reading I'm hooked. Geez! I had things to do this morning, man. And you distracted me. Thanks for that. Brilliant.

The faking of different accounts is not clever, granted, but the rest is simply underestimation of a foe obviously better equiped electoronicaly, and with the skills to outwit him/her. As such, he's not compounding his own idiocy with more, he's merely assuming that you won't check. I can count the number of people I know who could get that much info froma site on one finger! Not quite on a par with filming yourself breaking the law or calling an accomplice by name is it? Still, I like the science behind it and the soundbite should be used whenever and wherever appropriate! Uuh, the guy send from the same email doesn’t really count does it?

We must never underestimate the power of idiotic people in close proximity to one another. I believe our high school provided ample opportunities to see this unfold before our eyes. But for everyone else, you can just turn on C-Span. @capo :: Yes, the Darwin Awards provide many examples of this law in action.

This can be depicted as a field effect and modeled with a modification of Maxwell's equations.

Tony Robbins would probably repackage it as LMI but "Darwin's Law" rolls off the tongue a little easier. Law of Multiplicative Idiocy indeed.
