CANDLELIT CHRONICLES: HISTORIC HAUNTS

Is It Real? Or Is It Memorex?

Only 66% of 18-24 year olds in the US are certain the Earth is round. Thoughts?





PS: Congratulations to our very own PWheeler ~ nano gold team for Winning Nano! You put the rest of us to shame!





You Rock, Pippi!

Only 66% of 18-24 year olds in the US are certain the Earth is round. Thoughts?





My Response:





ARE YOU SERIOUS?


Actually:


ARE THEY SERIOUS?

I suppose they think the Round Globe and the Moon Landing were Photoshopped. Some folks of the recent generations  lean toward thinking reality is fake. (oh yeah, and certain politicians.)  I've heard youngers say some item or other was Photoshopped; but the Earth? Have they never seen a map of the Polar Jet Path? Or is that Photoshopped too.





Maybe these younger generations are all born Theoretical Solipsists.





That's really worrisome, because if they think Reality is Faux, then how are they going to “lead the world”?


Makes me glad to be Aged.
