Wh...Thanks for being courageous with this comment. What has been happening is very breath-taking. I think you have hit on something that is very important regarding the way some students have been molded. They have gaping holes where history should have been, civics went out of fashion, parents didn't teach consequences. . . I could go on. I never figured out how these whiz kids got so off track. But you did, my friend. <BR/>And we'll make it some more years. I just know it.
