I love the conspiracy folks like O'Donnell who claim that a fire cannot

I wouldn't recommend any comedians or other entertainers as sources of
information about materials, engineering, melting points or any other
aspect of physical, chemical, biological or social sciences.
I was watching an old interview with the Beatles a while ago and they were
pointing out that they are always asked about all sorts of social issues
as if they have some special expertise. The same thing happens to movie
stars. Once they realize that people actually care what they think, they
start to study a little, just a little, and then shoot their mouths off.
I don't imagine this will change any time soon!
