Hiding in Plain Sight

[thewayne]

When he's out and about near his Denver home, former Broncos quarterback John Elway has come up with a novel way to travel incognito—he wears his own jersey. "I do that all the time here," the 50-year-old Hall of Famer told me. "I go to the mall that way. They know it's not me because they say there's no way Elway would be wearing his own jersey in the mall. So it actually is the safest thing to do."

Brilliant! Do the very thing nobody thinks you would do, and you'll be able to travel everywhere. Wonder if he's ever had anyone slip through his Someone Else's Problem field and identify him for whom he was.

Chances are he's been spotted, there are people who view the world sufficiently differently to be able to see through SEP fields.

Of course, now that he's fessed up to SI, the cat is out of the proverbial bag (excluding Schrodinger).

All hail Douglas Adams!

All hail, indeed, and you'd be surprised. Even if people read the article and see it, they'll still be deterred by the SEP field, because, really? He'd keep doing the same thing he already said he did? Who would do that?
