90% of the time this I reckon!

Anyway I agree a lot with what Pyramid says. However there is a hint of snobbery in it too.

Yes.. Knowledge is power. However there is something better than Knowledge and that is actually "doing something". Sure you can get that smarty pants know it all who can memorise god knows what from Royal history to Chinese history to whatever. But some of these people can't really "do" anything.

I think possibly the education system is fine. Maybe they should teach more "life" skills though. The main thing wrong with the education system is that there is no discipline.
