I believe you. Dunning Kruger. I always thought people knew more than I do, and one day i realized that there aren't that many people in the world who have been a software engineer, website designer, interior designer, fashion designer, writer, editor, secretary, administrator, buyer, B2B rep, headhunter for CEOs and engineers, croupier (9 different games - professional dealer), and more. To be honest, I've forgotten what all I've done.

In addition there aren't many people who have lived and worked in as many countries as I have either. Oh, yes, and I read a book a day (mostly) and I read the news on five continents at source.

I was on the web when it had 3004 sites, and I remember thinking how I was going to get to reading them all. :)

I guess it's difficult for me to understand how someone can't know how to post a photo, but my sister still asks me the most basic things about the web.

When I spent five years in South Africa a while ago, I was living in a hotel that housed a lot of old people. They all wanted to know how I knew the things I did. I couldn't understand how they didn't know the things I did. They were so basic.

I guess I'm learning.
