I am SO VERY tired of the peanut gallery comments about 'education today' from knuckleheads who don't teach, don't support the local colleges or schools, and don't work in academia.
Sorry - I am a professor who needs better medication.  I really do mean this as 95% joke and 5% 'put your money, or time, where you mouth is' critique of those who slam education.
