Truthiness: The customer is always right, except when he isn't.

Truth is a slippery concept - there is the mathematical definition of a Boolean - true/false, it is or it isn't. There is the scientific definition of it's true until it isn't. And there is the social definition of consensus - it's true because we agree it is. There are some gaps between these definitions and then we add issues with the concept of right. I'm right - you're wrong.

Last week we had a an interesting experience in the Truth when my eldest son missed the bus. His Mother, who now needed to take him to school, was not pleased. Her version was simple - our Son was dawdling. His version was also simple - he was hurrying as fast as he could and the bus came. Likely both are correct. Both are true, if contradictory.
