It's all very simple really.  The message is that there are known knowns - there
are things that we know that we know. There are known unknowns - that is to say,
there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown
unknowns - there are things we do not know we don't know. And each year we
discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.
