I suppose the sort of rote memorization and spitback of instructional
materials is what the military wants and prefers, because independent,
creative thought is not really an attribute it wants in its soldiers,
sailors, et cetera.

Again you are just demonstrating your ignorance. If anything the
military training is more practical than what you get in a university
that stuffs your head with things you forget by the next semester and
never use again.

When the ship is sinking or under attack from a guy who wants to kill
you, creativity and the ability to use the information you got in
school is a matter of life or death for everyone on board.

It is not like some art history class you took to fill out your
transcript.



I wonder why being universally taught how to think abstractly or
learning well established "critical thinking" skills in universities is
any different than what military schools offer.

If you haven't attended one, I guess you wouldn't know.



I'm just spitting back here what I've observed over the years from such
well-trained thinkers as Herring, Robbins, and your junior high buddy in Florida.


Bull****. You were trying to promote yourself as superior. You have a
college education, where from studies, you actually use less than 5% of
what you studied. Whereas Engineering majors use about 20%. Much better
return on investment.



How would you possibly know what percentage of what a particular
individual studied was "used"? Or even when it was used or how often?

I think that fall off the roof you sustained caved in what little was
left of your brain after your infatuation romance with Zell Miller.

Religion: together we can find the cure.

Not my guess as to the percentages. That is what the studies show. And I
bet most do the studies were done by liberal arts grads. And I see you
revert to slanderous remarks when you can not show facts.


Frankly, Bill, when you came out as a fan of Zell Miller years ago, I
thought you had gone over the deep end. You've been consistently over
that end politically ever since. Oh, and once again, you have no idea
what percentage of what I studied in college I "use," no matter what you
may have read somewhere.



I would still like more Zell Miller's out there! He care about the people
in his area, not the party! What we have now is two parties who seem to
both want to be dictators. Dictate how we live, what we eat, what we
study. Not what is best for the country. I really doubt you even use 5%
of what you learned in college. You do not seem to have a good, honest
work ethic.



Zell Miller is a lunatic.

I've worked continuously since I was in high school, Bilious, and I never
hired illegals as you have.



I hired illegals because the ****ing lazy unemployed did not want to work!
I called the State Employment Development department for workers to clean
out the in laws house. Not one ****ing lazy unemployed worker showed up.
Wife is in tears. I should have followed up with the state, and if the
employee did not send workers, demand the worker be fired! No frigging
benefits. No early retirement, fight the union if they defend not doing
her job. And if she did try to send out workers, and they did not show up.
Remove them forever from any welfare, or unemployment benefits. We are
putting up with too much crap from overpaid, underworked, worthless
employees. And they are employees of the citizens of the state! Now you,
as long as the state worker pays Union Dues, the employee can do no wrong,
or be fired! Now you, the union pimp, hire religious fanatics to build
your so called red barn, and other items. Amish. Why do you support a
cult? And since you boast of many things that can not be proven like fire
boat welcomes, etc. I really doubt you graduated very high in your class,
either in high school, or college. And as too accomplishments, **** all, a
book on brick laying, is not much to be proud of. Why are those ****ing
lazy unemployed people not down in front of Home Depot, etc. competing for
jobs? Because they can sit on their ass collecting $25,000 a year, for
sitting on your ass. The frigging lunatics are most of the people in
Congress and the Executive branch these days. They only care about what
the party, and the lobbyists want. We have a President, who claims to be a
Constitutional lawyer who seems to ignore most of the Constitution.
Waivers from the law? Where is that legal? Start another war in Syria? No
problem. That is lunacy in action! Force an overpriced healthcare
insurance system on the people? Just another tax. And that is what the
Supreme Court ruled. There is nothing affordable about the ACA! Sure,
some get insurance. Paid for by the rest of us. Wait until those former
Medicaid people find out the coverage is not as good as Medicaid provided
before. For more cost. That actually will be a Hoot when that comes out.
Have a nice day, liar.
