Yes I do have opinions.  And among my opinions is Accountability in
educational matters is fundamental and cannot be replaced by Genius and that
you - and I mean a broader "you" than Kirby Urner - are broadly assaulting
accountability on a number of fronts.

You haven't a clue what I'm doing.  You got "assaulting" right I suppose -- has a kind of Lord of the Rings ring that I like.

And you need to because you are a rush.  We can't have a computer on
everybody's desk if we need to be Accountable for the "why".  Let's do it
because of Genius, we will find the why later.

I'm a Silicon Forest exec looking after my own.  Do what you will in New York.  Not my problem, not my concern.

Teaching Python again this morning -- we'll get into operator overloading some.  Then back to string substitution with madlibs.  Every kid has an Internet-enabled Win2000 box, while I project from my laptop.  These basic logistics are not my concern.  Portland already has its act together.

You do your thing, I'll do mine - is always your answer.

Exactly.  What other choice is there?  If you wanted to collaborate, you'd have to have more of a clue about what I do for a living, as a Fuller Schooler that is.

But I think you are muddying the waters tremendously for us Accountability
slobs, and doing damage.

And I think you're very far from the action to be making any kind of informed judgment.  People who study my writings don't go running to Arthur for an assessment of my effectiveness, I can assure you (unless they're lost or confused).
