I've known plenty of engineers, programmers, and math gods who can barely tie their own shoes. Without their supporting family, they'd be living in squalid little apartments with only the mold in the fridge to keep them company.

It bugs me when the products of our mass schooling system say things like "I not interested in math and don't like it". This is as anti-intellectual as saying I've never been interested in learning to read. Fine, education isn't for everyone.

English may be the language of America, but math is the language of nature. An educated person can not more reject mathematics than logger can reject chainsaws.

Granted there are some high functioning autistics out there who are good at math and nothing else. I'm not holding them up as an educational ideal.
