We Are Legion...Well, 2 of us are out there...

I was trying to find my blog from a phone the other day, so I googled "Constructive Pessimist". I was surprised to find there's more than one.

It would seem my theory is wider spread than I thought.

To save time, let me just put in the link - it is WELL WORTH a read!

I would like to point out that as far as I'm aware, I coined the term "Constructive Pessimist" conversationally sometime around 2006, and started this blog in 2011, so I imagine that at least one other person has coined the phrase independently.


I have some hand written notes on my take on the idea, so I may dig them up and publish them as I'm on break between semesters for a couple of weeks.

I imagine no-one's reading this, but game theory would describe this as a win / break even scenario.


If a tree screams as it falls, it doesn't matter if no-one hears it.
