Apparently many think learning is simply giving out information.

Sorry about that, I should have said: Apparently many think teaching is simply giving out information.

Apologies, I'm doing too many things at once!

Merry Christmas to everyone, even those I disagree with. :)

Hah! If learning is only going over what has already passed into the body of knowledge, then schools are seats of learning. Schools are libraries first and foremost, but at some point a student will have drained the books and will be on his own--then learning (not just individual bringing up to speed, but advancement of mankind) begins.
