How to Spot a Liar
We are very, very strong folk mythologies about what a liar looks like. And they're remarkably universal. We don't think, oh, this person is cold, which is totally a valid option for having your arms crossed. So we have all of these and have ideas in our heads, and it's almost impossible, no matter what evidence you present, to convince us that we're wrong. Even the science polygraphs are inaccurate. They're very flawed.
