Don’t you just love it when something you’ve always secretly thought suddenly appears in print, especially when written by a genius visionary truth teller?  That happened this week. It was something so obvious that it shouldn’t need discussion.  But all over the world the practice continues day after weary day.

Here ’tis:

“All people have their own chromosomal patterns.  No two persons have the same appetite at the same time.  There is no reason why they should.  There is no reason why everyone should be interested in the geography of Venezuela on the same day and hour unless there is some “news” event there, such as a revolution.  However, most of us are going to be interested in the geography of Venezuela at some time – – our own time – – but not all on the same day.  SIMULTANEOUS CURRICULA ARE OBSOLETE.”

                                                                                         R. Buckminster Fuller

There.  I know the textbook companies want this practice to continue, but should they be allowed to override our common sense?
