My turn. Oldest daughter is smart, did well in school. In high school, she was advised to take hardest courses and pre college stuff in order to be ready to go to college after High School. They knew courses were much harder, and a B was suppose to equal an A in easier courses. A girl in her class took every easy course she could so she had straight A's and got into National honor society. NHS advisor taught harder classes and had to really fight to get my daughter into NHS because her grade point was just below requirements. Who learned more in school? First problem is parents, next one is poor teachers. There are a lot of good teachers and some bad ones, problem is, you can't get rid of the bad ones once they get tenure. 4 grade schools in our district, then they all blend together for Jr. high and HS. Jr High teachers know who will be behind because of where they went to grade school and certain teachers there. Kind of like unions everywhere, can get rid of the poor workers because they belong to union. When oldest girl started school, we moved 400 miles south and they kept moving her up in grades to keep her interested. In 3rd grade teachers wanted to move her to 5th grade math and english. We moved back to old locality and put her in school, and the teachers said she was behind the rest of the 3rd grade class there. Go figure. Chris

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
