I do difficult things and challenge myself every ****ing day, Ben. I've got a technical team of over 35 people reporting to me (including those with MSc and PhDs) and I'm 28 years old. Do you think I get to do that by not doing anything difficult or challenging? I'm successful because that's exactly what I do -- seek out challenges and distinguish myself. When was the last time you tried anything outside of your rather narrow and restricted field? You've expressed contempt - many times, for disciplines that you've never studied while shouting down those who have studied both. Personally, I think your philosophy of education is rather sad. You went to school, got a piece of paper with your name on it, but you might well have never attended for all the good it did you.

Meanwhile, what do you do? You study something difficult but transfer out when it got too tough to an arts degree. Then you move to the US to tutor indoctrinated children at some private Christian school in Texas? What the **** kind of challenge is that? I teach a class of 15 middle school students in history.

For a deaf person? Pretty difficult, actually. I'm not aware of anyone else who is a deaf teacher teaching hearing students successfully.
