re: #49 researchok

Thanks for the encouragement…

My gut is not very trustworthy, I’m afraid I’ve discovered over these past several decades.

Oh, tactically my instincts are pretty good. Strategically though… I’ve realized (again, what great writers have put down before me…) that I can’t escape my own character - my own personality. While that sounds like something that ought to be obvious, to discover it through life seems to give it more weight.

As for teaching…. one thing I thought about doing is some volunteer tutoring locally. There are several programs in the San Diego area that advertise needing such. I thought about doing math - since that is something most people avoid. Then I checked out the requirements… what a mess. It’s like the bureaucratic rot that infests most of “education” has seeped into the volunteer organizations.
