I give up, but not for any reason articulated by Coltrane or Sebastian. No, what has become clear to me, is that the average child being raised in the south is likely inbred to the extent that education and critical thought are but dreams. I now realize that all we can do is throw whatever we can at them for "science", and steer them strongly towards vocational classes.
