    Neither!

    Why hire someone who is good at memorising something somebody else wrote in a book (that you can find out for yourself in 20 seconds by looking it up) when you can hire the fella who wrote the book - or someone who's capable of writing it!

    I read that in a book ya see!! :D

    Some people wouldnt understand what is written in a book though Beano, but if you showed them the same thing written in the book, in say a film kind of format, then its possible they would be able to grasp it. So, for all those people that attend education, that dont grasp how the system works because the format isnt put to them in a way their brain understands, the educations system is failing them, do you think??

    There are various forms of intelligence, emotional intelligence, intellectual capacity, spiritual intelligence, social intelligence but generally speaking all are determined by the efficiency of the brain, speed/capacity.

    Judging by the way you have composed the above statement the system would certainly appear to have failed you, you seem incapable of articulating your thoughts with clarity.

    So Escla, as much as i agree with what you say to an extent, that would mean, that only the fastest, strongest brains would (or should) be able to survive in an economic sense of the word?

    But Escla my dear friend, perhaps the system has failed you, because you cannot understand my statement with any clarity, is it myself, or is it you, who does not understand?

    Some people wouldn't have the common sense to do this though mate. Sometimes the simpler things in life, are not obvious to see, even from perhaps people that could be classed as 'super intelligent'. 

    I work in an office with a few other like minded lads, but on occasion i do work from home. Same as you though, it does get boirng at times, hence me always being on here!

    The fastest strongest brains, in the sense of 'only the strongest survive'? For example people who do a similar job to me, their brain may work faster than mine (which is possible, i class my self of just having 'normal' intelligence), but does that mean that if things were to become more difficult economically, would it be only they that survive?
