What an outrageous notion. Outrageous but true for the most part I suspect. Allow me to educate you. 
It has been my experience (and yours too I guess) that deeper understanding is a slow process of realizing what I don’t need to know. Education can never teach us what we don’t need to know. The scope is way to broad, infinitely broad, for that. So, in truth, we use education to set things up so they can be laid aside. Kind of ironic don’t you think. Yet another irony is the fact that we need to put education on its ‘pedestal of value’ so we will take it seriously enough to set it up. But, let’s keep this a secret between us. The social order may collapse if wind of this gets out.

Everything I know I learned from my cat, everything I forgot I learned in highschool.

Yes indeed! Me, I learned most everything important from ducks. The rest I picked up after I left school. Still, I got in some good nap time, so it wasn’t all a waste of time.
