Here's the issue that you seem to have trouble grasping GC: We are not the loud, disgruntled minority. We are not poison in the ears of the youth. WE are the masses that YOU have been charged to lead, and this is our water cooler. If you can't effectively relate to us here... You see where I'm going with this?

Surely something in your years of PME told you that such a thing is bad. You keep telling us to "get on board" without really seeing why we don't want to.
