 * Fallacies: Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc**
 * 1) The Latin name of this fallacy means "after this, therefore because of this." Or in other words "If event B happens after event A, then A must have caused B to happen." This fallacy is a logical fallacy used to indicate a casual relation.
 * 2) Ex.1: A train always passes after the railroad crossing alarm sounds and the gates come down. Therefore the railroad crossing causes the train to pass.

The first YouTube video exemplifies Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc by "after it, therefore, because of it" - which is, don't simply assume that because one thing follows another, the first thing caused the second thing to happen. A scene from the second episode of The West Wing, where Jed Bartlett implies that the reason he lost Texas was because he believed Texans would never elect a president who spoke Latin. The second YouTube video exemplifies Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc by Sheldon saying one thing and because of that one thing he says, something occurs. He says he is going to win a noble prize, therefore, after his success he will most likely win the noble prize.
