O.K. you guys win. How can I argue with that flawless logic. I just find it a little funny that the examples used of the "idiots" that vote were from Texas & Oklahoma. Obviously, not hotbeds of liberal thinking. I doubt we'll ever agree on much outside of cars, so why do we have to endure these discussions on a fun car site. If I want to get aggravated I'll just turn on Fox News for my "fair & balanced" news of the day. I'm done now,so you can throw any stones you want and I won't respond.

Political posts are creeping back into the Ynet. Another car forum I read has a "politics and religion" forum and it is a total train wreck every day of the week. Even when someone makes a reasonable post the trolls just blow it up with bat-$hit stuff and any human level of dialogue is impossible. (I stick to the technical forum on that site.) Read the following humorous bit on why we are often wrong when we attempt to argue and convince one another that our point of view is the right one. It's good for a few laughs. http://www.cracked.com/article_19468_5-l...-you-think.html |

I wasn't being specific with my comment. I meant anywhere; local, state, and national.

I showed my 8th grade son the video. He was flabbergasted at the ignorance of those college kids. He knew all the correct historical answers. And he did not know any of the stupid TV questions. I couldn't be more proud, especially since he had no clue about the Jersey Shore question. He only was aware of the name "snookie" from the South Park episode satiring her. And to think he was born here in Joysey!

That's a good thing Steve ... I'm a NJ born and raised transplant to CA and all I hear about is that lame show and those trolls.

I can see this one is getting deleted or locked. Already got political.
Keeping it apolitical, will share results of interviews I saw about 13 years ago. Graduating seniors from an OKC public school were told there were six states bordering Oklahoma, then asked if they could name one. First answer: Dallas? Second answer: Hmmmmmm. Sad state of education. And as Kwhizz pointed out, it can't be fixed by throwing money at it.

"but it certainly makes me wonder where they were during history class" -- or who or what is teaching them.

I think it was granny Clampet who said. "General Lee only gave Grant his sword so he could polish it for him".

Those interviews are totally depressing. Is History even a class anymore? I know a lot of facts have been culled out of the books so we can't call a bad guy a bad guy anymore.
