I agree that things have sadly changed here at FR.

I've been here since early 1998, and I don't think much has changed here except for the number of people complaining about FR. If you don't like it, start your own competing conservative website and organize it just the way you like. Then see how many followers you get.

I don't quite see how you could have "been here since Reagan," since to the best of my knowledge FR started in 1997, eight years after Ronald Reagan passed away. Perhaps Jim had something going on Prodigy or AOL before the FR website, I don't know.

One thing that’s changed: The US has raised another generation of people who are illiterate in basic math and science.

We’re paying for it now.

... to the best of my knowledge FR started in 1997, eight years after Ronald Reagan passed away.

Reagan left office after two terms in 1989 he died in 2004.
I've visited the Reagan library in Simi Valley, also a smaller museum in Santa Barbara (close by the train station) that is mostly about the history of his nearby ranch.
