Satire? Maybe...maybe not.

In 1975- I was going to Officer Candidate School (OCS) at NETC Newport, RI - to become a Naval Officer. 19 weeks of training at that time. One had to have a college degree.

During Navigation and Piloting course - the instructor was remarking about preps to enter or leave a port - and knowing what the ship’s draft was- and the effects of tides. TIDES!

Some young lady taking the course stuck her hand up and ask...’Tide? How do they know what the tides are?’ The instructor was a bit surprised and started to mention how the rotation of the Earth, and the rotation of the Moon around the Earth, etc. - were all known and how the Tide Tables could be generated years or even decades in advance.
The young lady looked quizzical - and gave a comment that was more ‘statement’ than question - she said...”Wait a minute....are you trying to tell me that the Moon has something to do with Tides?”

Yup - the stupid walk amongst us - and even worse - they vote.
