[QUOTE="Kevin Lang, post: 1011772, member: 65699"] When I learned that the schools of yesteryear taught young kids like advanced mathematics, the "classics" of literature, greek, latin, French I compared that to the sad excuse for an education that I was getting and wondered where we went wrong. ~100 years ago the raging, ironic Progressive Theodore Roosevelt advocated firearm training in public schools and today, as you mentioned, we can't have dodgeball. Pathetic. ...after I learned that preteens were taught how to navigate with a sextant-doing the math by hand-in the 1800s but the Naval Academy has, in modern times, discontinued that because it is "too hard", I think that our forefathers would consider us to be a bunch of idiots. :sad: [/QUOTE]
