[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You simply need to stop insulting other posters and public schools.  Talking about reading comprehension is rich from somebody who missed the irony in the word "dreadful" in an earlier post, and who is now trying to deny the whole public/private context of her earlier post (which the rest of us remember, however).[/quote]

Context was some poster (not me) made a claim that high school determines/has a major impact on where a kid goes to college.  Some other poster (you?) responded that it wasn't the school but the kid(s) -- cohort, motivation, etc.  At which point I said but school affects cohort, motivation, etc.  A point I would have thought was pretty obvious/uncontroversial.  You then nastily flame me for bashing publics and suggest that I'm racist.  I point out I didn't say anything remotely resembling your interpretation and, in fact, that you've misjudged which cohorts I'd find problematic. Then you start accusing me of being a liar as well.

So, okay, I get it.  You're impervious to reason.  And now you're hearing voices (the rest of DCUM).  I give up.  Carry on without me.  [/quote]
