You are to be Congratulated!

With this absolutely astounding statement of astronomically historic
and infallible intellect, you have succeeded in completely negating
the entire concept of learning.

You're confusing acquired knowledge with intelligence. Intelligence
is relatively static throughout life, but acquired knowledge tends to
steadily increase.

Learning is the process of acquiring knowledge; it has no effect on
intelligence. However, aptitude--the capacity to learn--is largely a
function of intelligence. Smart people learn faster and more easily,
all else being equal. This is why smart people tend to know more
than stupid people.

You are truly amazing :-)

He is, isn't he? He's like one of those battery powered Japanese robots
from the early sixties. you know, the kind that runs around the floor
moaking a lot of noise and get stuck every time he hits the edge of the
carpet.
