No surprise, that the people that blast science and university professor praise "common sense"

Do you know the real definition of common sense?
"If most people say it's true (or the media) then it's true"

Fact: A monarchy is a dictatorship
Common sense: England is a democracy

ovcatto originally said:

Dementia (from Latin de- "apart, away" + mens "mind") is the progressive decline in cognitive function due to damage or disease in the body beyond what might be expected from normal aging.

Thank you for the info. Maybe it's also a touch of chronicity...the effect of anything long term.

Common Sense left the room when Reagan took office.

The lament is a day late and a dollar short.
