Small post Clarifying a common fallacy here.

RE: Small post Clarifying a common fallacy here.
Of course I know about Popper and the Swans. But until a black swan appears you don't support the notion that one might be there but you adopt your understanding of Swans when a black Swan is observed. I am not considering a Dragon might be in your garage just because someone asserts that you can't exclude the possibility that there is one.
Best regards,
