Like, that's his beat.

He's also famously one of the guys who writes about Roswell.

So what we encounter after often these initial kind of perplexing and interesting stories is a kind of myth-making that begins.

Not everybody engages in that myth-making.

A lot of people are trying to just figure out what's going on.

A lot of people are not interested, whatever.

But there is a tendency to start, you know, generating these myths for whatever reason, financial or otherwise.

That then is really what starts to inform the speculation later.

And now we have what I like to call the Bermuda Triangle problem.

And it's a kind of a heuristic I use in my classes for, because of course, the point of our teaching this stuff, Nathan and I, is to help our students at least unpack these ideas and come up with the right answer.

So the question is this.

If we were to draw a triangle of, you know, say the Bermuda Triangle size over any area of the Earth, anywhere, might we find some statistical anomaly there?

Exactly.

But even just like, you're absolutely right.

And that's sort of the point, right?

So it seems like there's something going on.

When I said earlier, I googled, where are the most amount of shipwrecks?

And it turns out it's off the coast of Bermuda.

So there is something potentially statistically anomalous.

But then there's often statistical anomalies all over the place.
