A reader comments on A Lesson in Education
The data presented in this post is nonsense. Even the most uninformed search on the internet shows that The Philippines is ranked around 52th among nations, with US and Australia ranking around 19th. The Philippines is nowhere near the African nations which rank lowest on the scale. I would suggest that you are just hanging out with a lot of dumb people if you cannot find Filipinos who have a decent education and are aware of their own history and that of others. People usually tend to associate with their intellectual equals, so your post shows us all your ignorance.
From the Bugle: We like the intellectual discourse that is starting to occur in our pages. But can we try in the future to do so without resorting to any name calling.....

Nechyba wrote that: "(the book's) sweeping conclusions based on relatively weak statistical evidence and dubious presumptions seem misguided at best and quite dangerous if taken seriously. It is therefore difficult to find much to recommend in this book.
