Malik Greatly Disapproves. Again.

[It's been a while since Malik's spoken up on the network but this is something drastic to him and it needs addressing.]

It has been recently brought to my attention that the education system of modern times is sorely lacking in a number of regards.

I was told that beyond the basics of reading and mathematics anything else was not important and was not even taught, and this desperately needs to be rectified.

We may be learning magic and other such things from our overlays, but there are areas that are horrifically left by the wayside in this arms race we have entered in to.

I may not know much about history as it is from most of your perspectives but there has to be educators among us or at least those who will be willing to step up and help the children among us not return home uneducated louts who respond to the idea of mathematics or reading with "why should I care?" or "it is too difficult".

[He's not sorry Phillip. This is probably your fault kid.]

If you're thinking how stuff moves, energy, force - yeah, that's physics.

And that is, as it happens, one of the things I went to school for, so if someone more qualified doesn't pop out of the woodwork, it sounds like we should talk.

I'd like that. I've been reading a textbook from some version of earth, but... well, I think Thorne said it's a sixth grade book, so for all that I didn't know any of it, it's not very advanced.

I'm Armin, by the way.

[ringslinging]

Yeah, we can definitely get you further than that.

Hal, nice to meet you. Talk to you. You know what I mean.

[neverfeltthatway]

I'd appreciate it.

It's nice to talk to you too. I'm sure we'll meet in person soon enough.
