Short but powerfully accurate.  Should I send this along to our BC Ed Ministry, who is in the midst of designing the worst curriculum ever formulated for our students?  A curriculum that favours discovery as the path to enlightenment, and believes memorization to be harmful for kids?  Do you think they might appreciate this gesture given to them by a concerned parent?  Oh well.  Thanks anyway for forwarding this along Malkin.  Will be sure to share.

Be polite and respectful. Stay on-topic. State your position clearly and write succinctly. Provide support for claims. Don't hog the microphone. Strong opinions are OK, but outrage is not. Don't post just to upset others.
