One phenomenon that still shocks me but shouldn't is that our Education Establishment has one peculiar gift: they can riff for hours about literacy and other vital subjects without ever saying anything important.
What our professors tell us is that sometimes birds fly to the east and sometimes they fly to the west and sometimes they move both wings at the same time but sometimes they just glide. In any case we are told just the obvious in weird loops. But we aren’t told causes, or what it means, or where we should go from here.
When Shakespeare talked about a tale told by an idiot, he was talking about our education elite.
Instead of all that, here is the nitty-gritty, the basics of reading that everyone should know.

New novel: Art and Beauty.
Crime fiction. Set in Manhattan.
Dangerously well written.
Published by Web-E-Books.com /// Editor says: “Bruce Deitrick Price puts
a new spin on the all-American, sexy, fast-talking detective story by creating
a truly fresh crime-fighter personality and placing his original P.I. character, Jon Dak, among movers and shakers in the NYC art and fashion world.”

Let's Fix Education explains to Americans why their schools are so bad. The people in charge prefer mediocrity because they are socialists of one kind or another. If people work together to promote real education, we'll have it.
