Unfortunately, often many do rely on the internet exclusively. When we Boomers were kids, taking your whole report from just the encyclopedia (the consumate body of knowledge at the time) was a similar problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-104225530183538857.post-13333467943342684312009-06-30T12:01:48.226-05:002009-06-30T12:01:48.226-05:00This "expert"?

Especially not if he/she is all about obituaries! ;) I mean, we were reading Ed McMahon's, Farrah Fawcett's and Michael Jackson's obits within minutes of their deaths, thanks to the internet.

Would he/she feel that modern transportation has invalidated the education you coddled children received because you got to school the easy way? Just curious.<br /><br />I have more. :) xoSylvienoreply@blogger.com
