[edit] Pointy Haired Fallacy
Interesting idea, perhaps, but seems to combine neologism, original research, and lack of verifiability. --Tabor 19:00, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. I remember that particular Dilbert strip. I liked it a lot. I try to keep it in mind when I am among fellow-engineers who assume that what the people on the business side do is easy. The term "pointy-haired fallacy" might not be a bad name for it, although the PHB in Dilbert espouses so many different fallacies that it is not clear why this particular one deserves the name. (Why, the PHB is practically a fallic symbol). Unfortunately "pointy haired fallacy" is clearly a neologism; the term is not in any real use. Zero Google hits!.
