re: The Online Education

The one problem I see with online schools is the lack of community. Brick-and-mortar schools, for better or for worse, do a very good job at creating social situations where people can interact with new people and new ideas. The biggest mistake of online schools is failing to realize that the greatest resource for education is not textbooks but fellow students.

When students leave school, after all, they will be interacting with other people, not textbooks.

Great point! I'd never really thought about the importance of the geography to slavery!

I never knew that the horse was reintroduced into North America by the Spanish.

I went to London about 6 years ago and LOVED IT! Unfortunately, I only got to spend a day and a half there. My favorite? Tower Bridge. May be the best site in London...

If you want me to go to college first...better learn how to spell college! Overall, good twist, though to be honest I prefer the Beatles and the Stones to the Clash-------
