Analytical humility

On Fallows blog today, a tribute to the humility of some commentators trying to make sense of the Egyptian uprising:

...arbitrarily or not, in a single day earlier this week (Jan. 31) three instances of admirable humility in attempts to fathom what's happening in Egypt caught my eye. Do they indicate some collective chastening of American consciousness by events over the last near-decade? Who knows? But here they are.

"Here" being here.
