HEY KEVIN ITS YOUR OLD BUDDY FROM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

This concept interests me greatly
I've noticed there's a MASSIVE schism between two types of intellectuals, analytic and memory based.
In other words, there are exceptional problem solvers, and then there are people who can only remember things. Of course it's not that definite, everybody's mind has a little bit of the other at the very least, but the more of one you have, the more you can compensate for the other.
practical Geniuses on the other hand display exceptional use of both the ability to remember and problem solve.

In society, schools are more likely to grade somebody able to remember things higher than people who can solve problems, in fact, schools are designed to 'treat' people who suck at problem solving by teaching them how to use there memory as much as possible. 'write down your formulas !' for example.
Whereas people with the capacity to solve problems, invent, or even be abstract (art) have a much lesser chance at being successful if they can't both memorize and recall knowledge quickly and effectively.

FUCK YOU

OP, I just want you to know that you're a fucking idiot. You can never know what a person is truly like before you have personally met them.

I can't count the times I've thought I met another regular person, but surprised that they were actually very intelligent and knowledgeable.

So, OP, fuck off with your unnecessary elitism.

Just got this shit forwarded to me by a friend:

Message from Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne and Graham Nash

Dear Nuke Free friends,

This is nuclear power's summer of desperation. It has just a few short weeks to grab billions in taxpayer funding for new nuclear plants.

Last time we wrote, a $9 billion package was being slipped into an "emergency" war appropriations bill. Amidst a wave of your letters, the vote did not happen.
The issue is now in the Senate, and has been greatly complicated by our efforts.

Now the industry is demanding $25 billion for unspecified projects. Again, your voice can make a difference.

Please join us (Bonnie, Jackson, Graham and the NukeFree team) in writing and calling the members of the House, and especially in calling members of the House Appropriations Committee, per the below alert from NIRS, and ask them to oppose this latest industry boondoggle.

HOUSE APPROPRIATIONS SUBCOMMITTEE TO MEET THURSDAY, JULY 15. WILL CONSIDER SPENDING BILL THAT INCLUDES $25 BILLION OF TAXPAYER MONEY FOR NEW REACTOR CONSTRUCTION LOANS. ACT NOW! TELL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE ONE MORE TIME: NO TAXPAYER SUBSIDIES FOR NUCLEAR POWER!
I mad.
