In light of this above sentiment, I wonder if the
subject of this thread would better be generalized to
something like "Changing One's Mind: Good or Bad?" or
"Making Corrections: Sign of a Flawed Charachter?"
If there are any merits at all for the notion of
'never admitting a mistake' (especially for public
figures), then I will leave it to others to claim
them.
