They are mind-bending. I read his anti-competition book in the 80's. It was in the Ministry of Education library near the Legislature in Victoria. I was a co-op student. IRONIC or what! :O))

Funny. I keep meaning to read his books. <g> I tried one of them and

Par for the course. They talk about education reform all the time, but most
of what they do makes things worse.
