I've fallen for this; different boxes, same effect. I'm not proud of it, and I'm working on it. Shameless LessWrong plug to follow.

LessWrong is a collection of articles and pieces of information about how to overcome your intrinsic biases. (I still have enough of those biases that I try to weaponise these articles, so take my links to them with a pinch of salt.) This is some of the most dangerous information I have access to, but I'm sharing it with you because… well, I don't want to live in a world where people think that winning an argument means what you're saying is true.
