You See? She Was Right!
Yesterday, I published a guest post from my sister Dinah Paritzky. She stated that people should tone down their hysteria over the terror attack in Beit Shemesh, arguing that she is more likely to get in a car accident. And she was right! Today she got into a car accident!

The rationalists will take this as evidence that she was correct. The non-rationalists will take this as evidence that you shouldn't give yourself an ayin hara!
