Is "Unicorns have 5 legs" consistent with reality? I would be quite surprised to find out that it was.

Could you give me an example of a belief that is consistent with reality but false?

Tell me what Zork is and i'll let you know. : )

The first means that a fraction of the particles were nudged into a path that was a circle rather than a line. Apparently increasing the chances of fusion. As for the second a "fraction of a line" does not really mean much but it appears to be a comment on the size and form of the glinting thing.

I think the reason I was reluctant to accept that Quirrell is Voldemort is that Harry is a lot smarter than me and he trusted Quirrell.
