DO you mind if I share them with readers on my blog and with two Yahoo groups I am a member of ? Elections are approaching in April and anyways we might as well start putting ourselves first.

My example of Harvard, Yale and Brown are a little over the top...however, the point being that every individual in our society needs access to a quality education; I might even go as far as a quality education for every individual should be mandatory. I believe if we don't have similar knowledge, we can not address the huge responsibility to managing our lives and the planet appropriately. Yes, we need to create quality teachers; teachers who would teach students the importance of "How to question, reason, not be passive, explore, investigate, and use good logical, rational, and emperical methods to think things through and make sound decisions" The survival mode much of our country has been in for many decades has made it difficult for these unfortunate to know the importance of being educated. Hopefully the choices we make in this election will put responsible representatives in office. Ones who are not on the take and can put Education in it's appropriate position. We so need a population who have equal knowledge and understand the tremendous responsibility we have to our communities; a population that understands that creating a sustainable environment will allow all life to thrive! Thanks again. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my post.

Harvard, Yale, Berkeley are wonderful schools. But we all do not need to go there to be educated participants in this western civilization. All we need are teachers who teach at the High School level how to think. How to question, reason, not be passive, explore, investigate, and use good logical, rational, and emperical methods to think things through and make sound decisions. So that students get it about the importance of being educated. So that we elect responsible representatives who are not on the take for example, and are forward thinking in their engergy and conservation policies. If we do that, we could have a majority of children who are prepared for college and elected representatives that understand and support affordable higher education. Nothing less than our survival depends on it. Great article! Gail,
