Everyone has something to add. If we all bring our own unique pieces of the puzzle, we may complete the picture.

Your knowledge of something with which another is not acquainted is not proof that you are more totally-knowledgable than that other person.

I strongly disagree with your statement. There are basic facts and elemental information that constitute being educated. Beyond that, there are specialties, that could be considered extra. It is disturbing to encounter this degree of ignorance - and intransigience about it -On FR. To not know where Brazil is and what language is spoken is like not knowing who Newton was or that there is a law of gravity. These are basics of elementary school education.
And didn’t we all carry on when Obama said that the people in Austria spoke Austrian?
