 The phrase “X”often used to refer to a willful refusal to
acknowledge a particular reality, dates back to a legendary
chapter in the career of the British naval hero Horatio
Nelson. During 1801’s Battle of Copenhagen, Nelson’s ships
were pitted against a large Danish-Norwegian fleet. When his
more conservative superior officer flagged for him to
withdraw, the one-eyed Nelson supposedly brought his
telescope to his bad eye and blithely proclaimed, “I really do
not see the signal.” He went on to score a decisive victory.
Hence the phrase X came into being.
