Sometimes humans are too good at pattern recognition. Do all fleecy clouds look like an animal? Are those really images of Jesus or Virgin Mary in the pizza, tree, rock, window, grilled cheese sandwich etc.? Do daily track variants really gyrate greatly from day to day sans weather changes?
I use pattern recognition all the time, but it's a little like the strike rate of idea people. If 10% of their ideas pan out, they are ecstatic.
