>TC, I'm saying a person can be smart and do something stupid, but if a smart person repeatedly does something stupid, how smart can they be? Sure, I've done stupid stuff, just like everyone else, but I try not to do those things anymore. Making a mistake is human, doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results has been given as the definition for insanity. So, I guess you could say, doing stupid stuff, over and over, is indicative of a stupid person.
No, that is not the definition of insanity. Why do so many people keep saying it is? One might call it insane, but it's not the definition.
