As we have seen before, System 1 thinking takes disparate facts and creates a coherent believable story.\\xa0 No conclusion is too big a jump for System 1 thinking. My story and my belief that I had predicted the most probable cause is an illusion of validity which unless I can get System 2 involved stands a good chance at being wrong even though I believe I am correct!
