A question for Stephen and Gil in regards to education–why are we not questioning what children are taught in school? Why are we talking about reading the Odyssey as if it is some moral good and not something we all wasted our time doing? I seriously question the way history is taught–it is certainly not from an anarchist point of view. I would like to see a children’s book where the king is an evil bad man seeking to enslave people. I would like to see a US History class that focuses on freedom, what this country was supposed to be and what it is. More importantly, I think classes in health, nutrition, philosophy, good communication, money skill are far more important than any class we take in high school. I learned everything I was supposed to learn at my private high school–I enjoyed learning. I graduated at the top of my class and went on to a top university. All I can think now is: what a bunch of crap I memorized! What a waste of my time! So many more important things to learn! Not to mention that education done today is little more than government (and liberal) propaganda. I don’t have a solution… I just want to know if you guys have also questioned what your children are learning.

About the dinosaurs: I went with my daughter to see the Walking with Dinosaurs show. It was quite well done, very lifelike. I was more interested of how did they do it and it was nice to figure it out. Everyone had fun.
