The architect of the new curriculum, Dr Ken Boston, insisted traditional approaches had been "exhausted".

"We've tried everything but they just won't learn what we tell them to! So we figure, if we stop teaching altogether, then they'll be as ignorant as us and, um ... what was the question again?"

It always amazes me that so many education "reformers" start from the assumption that no one learned anything before they came on the scene.

Healthy Eating?

I like the Churchill diet—

two bottles of champagne and one of brandy
every day.

Of course. He still exists, only he goes by the name Bush now. Don't you read DU?

Seriously, everywhere you go, if the government is involved in schooling, the education sucks unless you are looking for socialist indoctrination and pop culture trivia.
