I wonder if that makes me stupid, or honest?

When I took two years of French in college, one of the first things I learned to say in French was, "I don't know." I'm not sure how to spell it, but it was something to the effect, "je ne se pas." And that's been much the story of my life. So often I have to admit, "I don't know." I wonder if that makes me stupid, or honest? --Jim Broede
