A comment on Wrong Questions http://lesswrong.com/lw/og/wrong_questions/ (March 2008) <br class="br">Context: Mystery exists in the mind, not in reality. If I am ignorant about a phenomenon, that is a fact about my state of mind, not a fact about the phenomenon itself. All the more so, if it seems like no possible answer can exist: Confusion exists in the map, not in the territory. Unanswerable questions do not mark places where magic enters the universe. They mark places where your mind runs skew to reality.

See the good that lies so near.
Just learn how to capture your luck,
