+++ You are right- It is different and, Al did well in his field as it
turned out.
I just wonder how it happens that different skills have different
importance attached to them.
If good teachers had a higher level of importance in everyones
view,wouldn't things be much improved?
A lawyer makes quite an hourly rate compared to a truck driver.
The truck brings things to eat- the lawyer talks about it and, in
terms of relative importance, there seems to be quite a financial
discrepancy.
I am from an earlier era where we got along well without any kind
of plastic and the boomers hadn't started to arrive yet and the people
doing things outnumbered the ones talking about it.
I guess that would tend to give one an odd view of the current
times. N.
