I have also yearned for the opportunity to actually use that trite phrase so recently in vogue..."Newman, you rock!"
Who was it that used to start all those Homeschooling threads on fcf? They're missing a golden opportunity...

This is kind of an eclectic group.

No I am not an attorney. I think I have a good read on people just as you believe you do...
So, shall we dance now that we both think this?

You think it. Newman knows it.

Many respected (and arguably older posters) who regularly work with people, took a cautious approach to this thread. Rather than charging in and telling them they are wrong, maybe just maybe they have some life experience behind them that you don't.
Knowledge of how the world works and not just how we wish it would work is most often a protection.

I certainly believe in mentorship and I seek out those who I wish to learn from, but I am picky about choosing my mentors. You may very well be a good mentor, and I salute you if so, but I don't know you and therefore you are not my mentor. If you say things that I deem to be sound, I have no problems giving you kudos, but other than that, why would you think I have selected you as the person I wish to emulate.

Kind of like the kids who want to sit at the grownup's table, but their feet don't quite touch the ground!

It's a simple question.

You act as if Jurassic Park is a desired place to be?
