   This discussion made me think about whether these proponents   
   of illogical laws are actually stupid, or just driven by   
   other factors.   
      
   For example, what if these proponents of illogical cellphone restriction   
   laws are merely Myers-Briggs "N" intuitive types and "J" judgmental types?   
      
   If they were very strongly intuitive, that would mean they prefer not   
   to use sensing. They go with their intuition to gather data.   
      
   And, if they were strongly judgmental, they would prefer to order their   
   own lives and they would strongly prefer others to order their lives   
   accordingly.   
      
   I have no proof of this nascent hypothesis, but, perhaps, these people   
   who seem stupid aren't stupid after all.   
      
   They just ignore data because their intuition tells them otherwise.   
   And, they strongly prefer others to do the same as they do.   
      
   If they're very strong N and J types (weak types would be more balanced),   
   that could explain why they ignore facts and expect everyone to   
   believe the way that they believe.   
      
   So, they're not stupid; they just make stupid decisions and expect   
   everyone else to follow suit.
