Are you talking Science or Technology , Theory or Practice., Revolution or rebuilding

For over one hundred years now the West has been reminded by its observers  that the public often confuse their interest and support for science for the more common support for the results of scientific discovery. With our local high school no longer offering Chemistry at higher school level for the first time in a hundred years . With our leaders celebrating their brilliance  in creating educational brilliance in our area I question whether they and the public really know what they are doing.
