Did you actually see "An Inconvenient Truth" or not?

I'm too much of a wuss to fire my staff, however incompetent they may be.

Fortunately none of them were ever my students.


But there's a rising trend in schoolteachers to substitute canned third-party material for lecture content. If carefully selected and used judiciously, canned material has its place as a secondary learning tool. The problem is poor selection and/or reliance of these materials as primary content.

from that article:

I actually enjoyed this quote more:
"Condoms don't belong in school, and neither does Al Gore. He's not a schoolteacher," said Frosty Hardison, a parent of seven who doesn't want the film shown at all.

Okay, so the condom thing is a kinda weird thing to say. How 1950's...

Oh, I just noticed that the commentator was very *fertile*. Now I get it. Ha ha.

Well, read the slick paper book with the same title & lots of pictures. Does that count?

I'm curious, did you go to Walmart after making this statement with the other 80% that claim to believe this?

Well,
Guess what, you will VERY RARELY find my AMERICAN MADE AUTO(S) (we have 3)
in a Walmart parking lot. If I do go, it is to buy food(sometimes milk is cheaper there).
I check "made in" labels religously, drives my wife crazy.
See, I was in Manufacturing for 20 years, made the best products in my field(s) in the world. BAR NONE!
Does your Chinese/japanese/fill in the blank counterpart make a better product or supply a better service than you PRIUS DRIVER?
If so, change your occupation, let someone else excel................
