Hank, et al,
You make an excellent point. You, and others, may appreciate a recent
article in Arts & Literature Daily
<http://www.cybereditions.come/aldaily/>
It is way down the column headed Essays and Opinions and begins "Years of
therapy..." and describes the satisfaction of college freshpersons with
their own ignorance and misinformation, a pattern frequently displayed by
the contributor you address in your submission above.
Pax vobiscum,
