dangerous men

[Carrol Cox]

This is the time perhaps to drag out a bit of research I came across a
few years ago. Someone investigated how people estimated their 
competency on the job. It was discovered that the one group (this across
all age, gender, racial, etc. lines) who did not systematically
overestimate their own competence were those who suffered from
depression.
