What I came into the room for.

It depends what country you’re in.

Time travelors.

Yeah, but it depends on the diligence of the principal, so not perfect.

Where I live, every principal is assigned a list of homeschooled children in their district and monitors their progress. If they are diligent, it seems to work out well. I know several well-adjusted, lovely children who have been homeschooled.

It did originate in the "low" countries around the Netherlands and Germany. The Mennonites took it with them when they left the Netherlands in the 1500s and it traveled with them to Prussia, then to Ukraine, and then to the Americas. I imagine it changes a little during those 500 years.

In what ways is it the worst time in the history of humanity?

I stay away from most news sites. I only skim CBC and BBC. I constantly look back in histroy for perspective. It helps me realize we are living in one of the best times in humanities’ existance.

Flashcards for new vocabulary and learning songs in the new language seems to work for me.

That is the best question by a dam site.

You said it so much better than I did.

Unless there’s some critic event like a civil war, I’m guessing it will be a slow decline of the U.S. I don’t think any country stands to replace it, at least not in the same amount of dominace that the United States had. I think two or three countries, including the U.S., will dominate economic and military power for quite a number of years with a great deal of shuffling between them.

Yes, but is it using recycled plastics?
