TruBluePony Point Made
TruBluePony my father would have enjoyed speaking with you. He was an Aerojet General/Gencorp employee for many years, so I understand your general issue with white-out. I apologize for not reading as well as I should have before I made my comments. Point made. As for the comment on....remaining silent... I am still working on that one..."think before you talk" eludes me at times.... I obtained the per gallon issue from an internet mail and found it humerous.
"there is a vast difference between an educated individual and one who is actually considered to be intelligent. Intelligence is not only based on being educated but also on being wise. On the surface it may appear to you that these are the same but in order to be wise you must have common sense. Without it you may be the most educated person in the world but still be regarded as a dummy."
As for intelligence..somewhere in the definintion it indicates the ability to think and learn....I have learned from this thread that you Sir are an intelligent and educated man. How far we go in school and the degrees obtained is irrelevant in my opinion. Many of our founding fathers and most brilliant minds did not have more then grade level eductions. Thank you for your correction. As for being wise. That comes from acquiring good sense and judgement from experience. Please consider these last few posts an educating experience. Thank you.
