Those two could have possabillties

It's funny you should say that. I've got two sisters who are teachers, both intermediate school level, and both specialise in science. The younger one was employed to make the science curriculum "fun and exciting", which is pretty much bullshit, and reinforces my theory that 'education' these days is more about entertainment and social programming than solid learning or teaching kids how to think.

At high school level, teachers are just caregivers, allowing the parents of these hoodlums time at home to cultivate weed.

Off topic and tangential, I know. But I completely disagree - science teaching should be about making exploring the world around you fun and exciting, and that's all about creating a lifelong passion for learning.

As you were.

Hi Have you had your knee op yet and also how did you get on with the 2 job interviews.

Knee op went well thanks for asking and also remembering. Walking without a limp and have just ordered a new bike (today).

I haven't had any interviews. Neither party got back to me after seeing my CV :-). I am not concerned (yet) having been buyin g and selling things, which is good fun. Probably won't earn enough however it is getting me by.

Have my 20 year old daughter coming over from the UK to see me next week, so will start looking after that.

You missed my point. It should be about focus and depth, and education rather than mere entertainment.

Or you missed mine - science is all about the wonder of things, and if you lose that you may as well not bother - science is about more than an accumulation of facts it's a way of thinking.
