Wikipedia has a
discussion
about it that begins: "Common sense is defined by
Merriam-Webster as, "sound and prudent judgment based on a
simple perception
of the situation or facts." Note that
shortly after the word "knowledge" gets
referred to, but what
stood out for me, in relation to your comment, was first
and
foremost the concept of "sound and prudent judgment". [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Speaking as a 79 year old man, I am finding "common sense" is very
uncommon today. I am appalled at what some our young people are doing, with no
forethought of what will come after.

I think that Godwin's Law should apply to Common Sense.

IANAL, but I watch actors play lawyers on high-definition television.

Often, what is legal does not match "common sense". While the law
eventually ends up being rather consistent with itself, it doesn't always "make
sense" to a layman. That's why there are judges and lawyers. That's why
following the judge's instructions are so very, very important.
Common
sense will often lead you astray in legal matters.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
