You really have to wonder if our culture is decadent? *NM* - 04/05/2011 06:24:25 AM 604 Views
Not at all, but it does make me wonder if we're TOO decadent. - 06/05/2011 01:38:42 AM 1106 Views
I agree. *NM* - 09/05/2011 10:36:40 PM 679 Views
How is it the kids' fault that they are not taught (to care) about recent history? *NM* - 04/05/2011 06:54:16 AM 556 Views
I just asked my son, and he said he was a boss of a criminal organisation who was responsible for - 04/05/2011 06:56:18 AM 1100 Views
Good enough for me, thanks. - 06/05/2011 01:59:40 AM 1103 Views
Yes and no, but I'd think an international network trying to kill you would motivate self education. - 06/05/2011 01:57:06 AM 1231 Views
Good teachers don't allow overeager students to monopolize the classroom. - 06/05/2011 02:52:27 AM 1240 Views
We covered the material. - 06/05/2011 02:57:52 AM 1282 Views
Which means... not a good teacher. - 06/05/2011 07:02:44 AM 987 Views
Good luck with that. - 06/05/2011 11:51:48 PM 1146 Views
If they don't know about the terrorist organisation to begin with, why would they self educate? - 13/05/2011 08:06:07 AM 1111 Views
If completely ignorant of terrorism itself, they wouldn't, but if not I'd expect they'd get informed - 14/05/2011 03:01:37 AM 1080 Views
What?!? There are terrorists roaming the US, killing kids in their beds?!? - 14/05/2011 07:45:27 AM 1232 Views
They're certainly trying. - 14/05/2011 10:43:48 AM 1123 Views

Sure, but obesity covers a lot of ground. - 15/05/2011 04:19:51 PM 1138 Views

only about a third of the home schooled kids are home schooled for religious reasons - 16/05/2011 09:35:36 PM 1217 Views
Fair enough... I can imagine wanting to avoid a crappy school. - 17/05/2011 06:04:11 PM 1108 Views
getting your kid in the right school can be a challenge - 17/05/2011 06:18:04 PM 985 Views

He may have been dreaming about killing them but he was actually doing anything *NM* - 06/05/2011 03:09:49 AM 616 Views
The short answer is "yes". - 06/05/2011 03:19:31 AM 1102 Views
you would of have had to know who he is to know he was doing that though *NM* - 08/05/2011 06:16:39 PM 561 Views
Yes, and the fact he WAS doing that is why I expected nearly everyone to know who he was. - 08/05/2011 07:12:41 PM 1121 Views
I am not saying they shouldn't know who he is just that is isn't that shocking that some don't - 09/05/2011 02:35:02 PM 997 Views
I get that, it's the size of the "some" that kinda floors me. - 09/05/2011 05:02:46 PM 1120 Views
Rumsfeld was a bit of a tool but he was right about a lot of stuff - 09/05/2011 05:05:56 PM 1035 Views
I did think he took heat unfairly for that comment; he's an interesting figure. - 09/05/2011 05:59:58 PM 1224 Views

Not a rebuttal. - 16/05/2011 09:10:33 PM 1102 Views
I am trying to be more concise and that summed it up *NM* - 16/05/2011 09:26:32 PM 572 Views
Concise is nice, but that response was solely about me rather than my arguments. - 18/05/2011 11:30:38 PM 1072 Views
No it was about your reply I am just to lazy to break it down - 19/05/2011 12:54:38 AM 1052 Views
"You live in a fantasy world" is 100% about me. - 19/05/2011 01:53:07 AM 897 Views

Thanks for the mis-analogizing. - 10/05/2011 06:26:40 AM 1513 Views

And that is your analysis? Really. Kids sure are dumb to ask questions and do research. - 06/05/2011 10:15:41 PM 1028 Views

Hopefully that's all it is. - 07/05/2011 04:17:21 AM 1026 Views
actually, search engines are getting better towards "questions" now - 11/05/2011 11:06:42 PM 1023 Views
Fair enough then, if surprising; objection withdrawn. - 12/05/2011 01:17:28 AM 1145 Views
