There are three branches of government.

There are at least a couple more. What about CIA/State Department/CIA? FBI??

In my NC school, we never learned anything past the Civil War in elementary school history. We sang ‘negro spiritual’ songs in music and learned all about Harriet Tubman, the Underground RR and slavery but nothing about the Vietnam War or anything from the 1900’s forward.

We learned that an Ice Age was coming when we were in school in the early 1970’s. Also, one of the student teachers told us the Zimmerman Telegram was the correspondence about upcoming Pearl Harbor attack that wasn’t received in time.

Also, one of my friends went to another school in another city and had a social studies book that I had in 2nd grade. I told her it was exactly like the book I had - she opened it up and my name was in the front with other students’ names under mine who were assigned that book.

Peak Oil on a very basic level, makes sense. It is rational to believe we can, at some point, use more oil than we can produce. When that point will be reached, if it ever is, is beyond our ability to predict.

We have found we do not have anywhere near the knowledge to predict when it may happen.

I am related by marriage to perhaps the greatest petroleum geologist of his age, Lewis Weeks. He literally “wrote the book” on how to find oil.

In his biography, written not long before he died in 1977, he warned of the reality of “peak oil”.

He was wrong as to the timing, and we still do not know the timing. We will almost certainly find new sources of energy to replace oil in the next 200 years. We seem to have enough fossil fuels to last that long. Nuclear fission could give us another couple of hundred years by itself.

Weeks said we need to develop those sources before we hit peak oil. He did not even know there was a theory of “global warming”. In 1977, the great bugaboo was the next ice age.

My point is: Lewis Weeks was a genius, the best petroleum geologist of his age, and he got the timing wrong. We are fallible humans. All of us.

Weeks was no wild-eyed leftist. Is peak oil a lie? It was an honest mistake on the part of Lewis Weeks.

Margarine was good for you.

Then later (when my kids were little) the whole food pyramid recommending eating mostly carbs.

I was a trouble maker in school. Got my share of three day suspensions. Had no intention of going to college.

My high school teachers were liberal jerks.

They were quite surprised when I ended up being a full time university professor at age 26!

I’m surprised the #1 answer isn’t “Columbus discovered America”. That was in Kindergarten...

Well, honestly, there is so much to choose from.

But yeah, that's definitely up there.

This is gonna go on your permanent record so don’t screw up. I’ve yet to see my permanent record and or anybody else’s.
Also going straight to a 4 yr college is better than getting your general Ed’s at a community College first.
