Re: Mindless Testocracy Strikes Again

["Peter Majoy" <pwmjoy@earthlink.net>]

Hey, Art, since I am relatively new to this list, and since I too have been
at the receiving end of your silly willies, just so I am not mistaking you
for someone else, is "Accountability and Research" your bag of tricks, or is
that some other Art Burke. Peter P.S. Your remark below is your
stock-in-trade irony given the obsession you seem to have with controlling
teachers and students with tests. I await your sarcasm. But, more than that
ping-ponging of inanities, I await more cerebral stuff. Maybe I missed it
given the short time I've been logging on my
own fun stuff. What I am most interested in is how someone such as yourself
can be so committed to your point of view. Is there some philosophical
underpinning to your support of what is termed here the "mindless
testocracy". Let my question be a test for you and more than that, see if
you can answer it straight-on minus the arrogant nit-picking and the "god,
there goes Art again down that old alley drunk with snotty, teeny-weeny,
quicky spitty nothing butty barbs." Choose (a) :-) or Choose (b) :-(  or
_______.
