Hi, It would help if everyone would specify into which basket they were putting their theories. Groupthink has come up in discussions of how we ended up in Iraq, and the SPS in the sentencing of the guards from Abu Ghraib (sp?)...but my impression that they are well known could be based on the circles in which I travel.

Gary OK...are these useless? Because they are well known....but I would beg to differ about their uselessness, especially since we've seen the dynamics illustrated by both at work in government and foreign policy decisions over the past 10 years or so.
