You could plot Bernie Madoff somewhere near there, for sure...ppl on that end of the scale are usually a danger to OTHERS whereas fortunately those on the dumb end are often Darwin Award nominees (i.e., usually only a danger to themselves)!

In ordinary terms this is called arrogance, a rather insulting form of confidence. And not to blow your ego up too immensely, Doug, but bravo on noticing that phenomena.
