He calls them something like the dumb generation (not a direct quote). His opinion is such because they aren't able to easily quote poetry authors or specific history dates.<BR/><BR/>The piece went on to interview a professor at one of the Ivy League schools. He said the book is untrue because in today's society, if a kid wanted to know when Christopher Columbus first reached America, they would simply Google it. Made me smile.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing.~Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16022026685666792412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14212250.post-737272739377817272008-02-26T17:59:00.000-06:002008-02-26T17:59:00.000-06:00as the video began, i was saying to myself, yes i ...as the video began, i was saying to myself, yes i knew that. but it didn't take long for my jaw to drop.
