Did you see John Stossel’s TV report “Stupid in America?’” Things are grim out there.

Did you know that Professor David Gelernter (at Yale) said we should just close the public schools–they are that bad?

Did you read my “A Tribute to Rudolph Flesch?” You’ll enjoy it. On the other hand, the closer you look at whole word, sight-reading and the rest, the more depressed you’ll be. Our so-called educators couldn’t possibly promote a reading pedagogy that actually harms children, could they? Yes, they could. They did.

I just set up a second site (a blog, technically) called Bruce Price’s EDUCATION REVOLUTION. The thesis is that we need reform and maybe the time is ripe. Why? Because more and more people know that American education is debased and that educators can’t be trusted to fix the problem because they created it.

It’s like Senator Moynihan almost said…Better to have the schools run by any 400 people out of the phone book than by educators. Much better.

I want EDUCATION REVOLUTION to be a HQ for the reform movement. You’ll find some good thoughts, good links and good books. (Especially suggest this site to your friends who aren’t sure what to think.)

PS There’s also a link to “A Tribute to Rudolph Flesch.”
