The law of averages

[Guest guest]

If you buck the law of averages, you must be willing to pay the consequences.

For some reason entirely unknown to me some people think they are exempt from

this law. Maybe you know the answer. Please inform us. Let us take a simple

example which practically every body knows. If some one were to ask you what is

the average bodily temperature of humans? Most of us would automatically answer

98.6 degrees. After all this is what our parents told us, or your health

teacher told you, so why should not we believe it? What was the answer you gave

when you first heard the question, What is the average bodily temperature of

human beings? We are talking here about the average bodily temperature of

humans throughout the world regardless of sex, race, creed religion or culture.

It makes no difference who or where they are located. average temperature does

not vary by much. For instance just raise this temperature by 2.4 degrees, and

what do you have? If your answer is a fever, then you are right. Can you

function with a fever of 101? Of course the answer is yes. If you ask the

question another way, Can you function well at a fever of 101 of course the

answer is no. Isn't it amazing how a very small differenc can make such a big

difference in your life? Do you know what the average fasting blood sugar level

is in human beings throughout the world ?

Do you know the average A1C in human beings throughout the world?

Ignorance abounds in the human race. Knowing these numbers to the questions

above in my opinion is just as important as knowing the freezing point of water

or the boiling point of water at sea level. There is nothing wrong with being

ignorant, because it is fixable. On the other hand plain stupidity is a serious

problem.

I have often heard the biggest difference between stupidity and genius is genius

has its limits.
