The teacher addresses the daydreaming fool who knows not why the class laughs.

Dear Dataman, I suspect you will understand what I mean when I say: I'll take a "day-dreamer" over an "ideologue" any day of the week. "Day-dreamers" might create a viable future; but seemingly all ideologues ever seek is to embalm a dead past -- all the while insisting on the corpse's indispensable relevance to the future. Go figure.

Or so it seems to me. FWIW.

Thanks so much for writing!

Well said!

BTW, speaking of embalming a dead corpse, why doesn't "science" self correct its own false nonsense like Haekel's embryos, the evolution of the horse, the peppered moths, etc. etc.? If evolution is science, then science isn't really self-correcting, is it? Unless one thinks Bill Clinton's tangled mess of lie upon "self correcting" lie is science.

-David Limbaugh

Like you said, ideologues.
