    Yeh..the 'ivory towers' and the education system needs to be
    burnt to the ground.
    They are a tool to perpetuate ignorance in all but who serve consumerism
    and conservatism...

  3. Another layer is unravelled in the mystery of Occam. Australia is about the mass media equivalent of "Lost"...or nobody knows who are where we are, and certainly not who our prime minister is.

    So...are you simply informed, or could you be living in the house next to me? [​IMG]

    By the way, i don't watch lost. *shudders*

    Interesting fact: "Arse licking cock sucker" was the term given to John howard, by the ex-opposition leader, Mark Latham, who was in fact, sort of cool ;)

    Never said burn the books dude...that is act of the ignorant.
    Never said burn the accademics dude..that is murder.

    Actually meant 'system' needs replacing..
    But have passion on this one so tend to say things like
    burn to ground[​IMG]
    Talking more here about education to 18 yoa
    Uni is specialisation.. but could do with several
    'generalist 101' paths[​IMG]

    Have 2 nephews age 17-19
    that exited highschool system in near total ignorance of world.
    That is shocking. Actually had arguement with science teacher
    at their school and he backed down due to ignorance of HIS
    topic,, with occam. a self taught private citizen.

    98% of information/understanding occam has of world around him
    he gained after 18.
