Map vs. Territory

"Most Americans are familiar with the Food Guide Pyramid-- but a lot of people don't understand how to use it. The government says the proof is that two out of three Americans are fat."

I bet people do know how to use it, but don't. There is a difference between knowing something and using that knowledge to change the way you live your life.

This is a problem in may areas, especially (to my mind), religion.
