Galong - I'm really not disagreeing with you. The only point I was trying to make is if you receive an education from any source and don't sleep through the classes you HAVE to pick up something. that's why I said if it's even by osmosis. That something makes you smarter. That's all.
Letslearntogether - I think your first paragraph is spot on. That's one of the reasons I preach to people that you have to sit down and develop a plan for your life. Decide what you want to do and make a plan of how to get there. Soooo many folks wake up one day, find they are 40 something and wonder what happened to their life. You don't drive to some place you've never been before without looking at a map. Why would anyone just drift on the wind and expect to end up the same place there dreams pointed to? That plan is your road map for your life.
