Potts... all you ever have is anecdotes about how dumb educated people are, and how in all your interactions with them, you're right.
Yet you show yourself to be 100% incorrect in a number of situations where: 1 -right/wrong is a mathematical property, not an opinion; and 2 - you're still unable to understand where you are incorrect.
Since you've shown in a number of situations where you are unable to understand an unambiguously correct answer (ie 2+2=4) , I can only assume that you make these same errors throughout the rest of your life. In other words, I suspect you are simply unable to understand that these people are in fact correct and not the idiots you think they are,
This reminds me of a coworker (I'm going to use a pottsian irrelevant anecdote!)... in his youth he had attempted a PhD in physics, but had left the department. He claimed that he left because he had discovered a completely novel way of understanding gravity, or something like that. And that his discovery was so groundbreaking and so novel that the entire physics department didn't understand it, and so they drove him out.
Well, that's all fine and dandy... sure, we all would like to believe in the genius underdog who's fighting the unbending university which didn't understand his brilliance. But the reality is that he'd tried for a PhD in Religion as well, and another in anthropology... failing out of all 3. In fact, after he started self-destructing at work, ultimately leading to his firing, it became clear that he simply was delusional, and his "novel understanding" of just about anything was simply a delusional inability to understand facts.
Kinda reminds me of you...
