  1. Lech, the social aspect of education has a value in and of itself, to state the obvious. For kids to not only be exposed to a formal way of learning but to negotiate the world of social life, love, fighting for status, competition, all of it.

    I was talking to a guy last night about my education, the lost world of pre-Vatican II Catholic school. Twelve years of all girl/nun education. Truly a lost world. Who knows what is best in the end. But it had its obvious minuses but many incredible pluses.

    One of the reasons I miss Benson, (I know a lot of people are annoyed with him) is because he truly understood that world and he was the cutest and most charming talking about his schooling and the happiness he had there.

    I hear you RF, good for you and your lively girl.

  2. You’re an ass, Lech. Now THAT was an insult. Not my previous post.

    I’m not going to expend energy picking one of the dozens of issues the tea-partier’s are angry about, but about which they have no earthly idea how to solve beyond simply destroying it.

    If you’re interested in continuing, then how about you, Lech, pick one of the tea party “policies” you think is reasonable, doable and fair. And I’ll respond.

    Otherwise, leave me out of your generalizations, and cease referencing me or addressing me. that’s probably best.

    OMG – are you kidding? WHAT WHAT WHAT?!?!?!?! -so you saw a plane followed by two choppers? WOW – that must have been a very low flying plane?
    What do you think it was????

  4. So Lechacal, why don’t you move to the farm and educate your kids there? Really, someone so many standard deviations to the right surely has genetically superior children who deserve this much.
