	Description:		We all believe honesty is generally a good thing, right? But we all agree to keep secrets, whether for our country or for the company we work for. Sam and Simon think this is bullshit. Honesty surfaces data, and helps people to make better decisions. Except if there's an axe murderer coming to kill a member of your family. Then we think maybe lying isn't a terrible idea.
