| Jan 15, 2013 at 16:32 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | I agree with Dan. Especially if one is being asked not to name published references of such mistakes, the list will look very similar. Except maybe for one thing: the other question seemed to encourage answers that had an element of humility: here is something I once believed, but now recognize as being a dumb mistake. Whereas here it could become a list of other people's dumb mistakes. :-) | |
