We make fun of the weather man, saying that he's almost always wrong, but we slavishly follow the forecasts on our smart phones. Why? Do we think the information through those fancy apps is better than when the weather man talks on the radio? It's the same information. Actually the weather man provides more value by explaining things. Actually the weather man's predictions are more accurate than we think. Here's a guy who's trying to predict the future, he's actually right more than he's wrong, we thinks he's wrong more than he's right, and we fuss and fiddle with our cell phones to know that the weather will be in the next 30 minutes.
Maybe it just gives us something to do with our thumbs while we're waiting!
