We have a television program which regularly visits the best US universities such as Harvard, Berkeley, Yale and ask absolutely stupid questions of graduate students and professors. One of my favorite was " Should a highway be built between Beijin and Calcutta to reduce smog and pollution in asia?" Another, "Should the Canadian government stop the practice of leaving the elderly to die on icepacks in the artic?". There is nothing funier than watching a professor rant with great authority for 10 minutes on the inhumanity of leaving someone die on an icepack and how the Canadian government should change its laws. Only in America

No wonder less than half of american high school students can identify Africa on a map.
