[ale] Trouble with Today's Students

[George Reeves]

I have to agree with you that the trouble with today's students is lack 
of parenting.  And, yes, my wife is a teacher, too.  Actually, she's 
been on both sides: she was a high-school science teacher [mainly 
chemistry], then was in administration as the Science Coordinator for 
the entire county school system, and recently as a consultant.  We both 
have three degrees and, at age 60, she is going back to school to get 
her Ph.D. in Science Curriculum Development.  She's a damn good teacher 
and wants to influence the thinking of science teachers while they are 
still undergraduates, rather than after they are already out and in the 
teaching profession.

I guess that's why I love Linux and Bash and open software so much: 
there's always something more to learn.  I am a retired LAN 
administrator and learn something new every day.
