Why do very smart people sometimes do/say very dumb things? A brain freeze? A momentary lapse? Lack of focus? Clueless?

    Error, we all err. Not to mention, "very smart" is pretty subjective. Not all people have the same area of smarts, you know? You wouldn't call a mechanic to landscape your property. You wouldn't ask an astrophysicist to preform heart surgery. A person can be highly intelligent in one particular field while simultaneously not knowing their butt from a hole in the ground in another field. Takes all kinds and what not...

    Because very smart people are human.  Humans do not say smart things forever.  Of COURSE.  Who is perfect and who even wants to be?

     Of course not.  That isn't the question I asked FNR . I would not expert a mechanic to know what landscapers know nor would I expect the reverse. If I did I would be the dumb one wouldn't I?  Thank you for your reply and Happy Friday! :)
