most folk who apply themselves can pass exams, especially where reading and memorising are the main constituents... being intelligent is a different ball game

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

It's the difference between having knowledge and knowing how to use it.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Being academic isn't the same as having common sense, and most of these chinless wonders are devoid of having any, almost as much as they are divorced from reality... I detest such creatures like you couldn't imagine... Plus he's on record as being anti-Scottish, and anyone who's so blatantly anti-Scottish as him is my enemy!

Well, don't pollute this thread with politics, or indeed any other thread on the forum. If you want to talk about that pish, start a separate (and dedicated) discussion, so all that cack can be kept in the one place.

I'd rather we kept off it altogether as no-one seems to have anything informed or intelligent to say and PFM already has the juvenile angle well covered.

Well it doesnt follow that read people are not intelligent but neither does it the other way. Its a form of ability, much like ability to pick up mechanical stuff easily. My Brother was university educated and a teacher, and was fairly good at lots of things, but he was far from the norm of his collegues
