Neil DeGrasse Tyson on successful bullshitting by Commander Tansin A. Darcos 12/07/2015, 2:43am PST
"I Tweeted recently that, 'If you're really successful at bullshitting, it means you're not hanging around with enough people who are smarter than you.'"
- Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson, You Tube video of podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. It's about 5:05 into the video.

They're discussing scientific illiteracy, and this was probably recorded back in 2011, about how people were worried about the world being destroyed when the planets align in 2012. And the comment being, "Well how often do the planets align?" Discovering that this happens every year or so, then it's easy to realize how misguided this attention is.

This guy is good. And I'd only first heard of him maybe a year or two ago.
