User:Andrewa/Alder's Corollary

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Never take offence at what could just be a mistake.

This is a corollary to Hanlon's Law, with appeal as well to the Golden Rule, life's bitter lessons, and just plain commonsense. And I have a truly marvellous proof of this, which the margins of Wikipedia are too narrow to contain. [1]

I think it's mine, but then there is nothing new under the sun. [2]
