Amazing displays of ignoranceSandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

I had to accost a random stranger in San Francisco......but not for the usual tawdry reasons. I was in Borders bookshop and had just come across a few books by Ms Coulter.
I'm afraid I exposed my own ignorance. I picked up one of her intellectual tomes, and turned to the guy browsing next to me.
"Excuse me," I asked, "is Ann Coulter real?" I indicated the book.
"Afraid so," he replied, rolling his eyes.
"Oh," I said. "I thought she was a character made up by The Onion."
In my own defense, she is pretty incredible (in the literal sense of the word).
