Argued like a person of letters.  The fact is, whether or not we have a
written mandate to do so, we DO go into schools and other educational
settings.  As such, we have a responsibility to the truth. Saying it's not
in our charter and our role is to educate ourselves is a convenient dodge
that ignores the reality of the situation.  What's the point of being
self-educating if we can't educate ourselves correctly? What purpose demos
in schools if we disseminate falsehood?
