Beyond that and I get into new console territory. Seriously, how do people afford all this stuff? The economy isn't that good :)

I seriously had no idea of WTF was going on in this episode after a while. I thought it was cool that we finally got to see the pool after it being referred to in the 5th Doctor's run (and maybe before?) and the eye of harmony, but beyond that... I felt like I needed to be REALLY high to understand this episode.

True. A bad episode is still a bad episode, no matter what.

As much as I dislike that episode, at least the rifle was interesting. This episode was just painful.

As tragic as that was, I believe most of the US is not as barbaric as that town.

Soon to be seen on Twitter:
zOMG mah latte be chokin me lulz

Aie.... didn't this get a 92% at Rotten Tomatoes?

That's what they get for all those crop circles.

I guess that answers the question I had about whether or not she ever finds out :)

LOL, sorry, allergies are making me sleepy and unable to think straight

But that's just it - what you're describing (and maybe I'm reading into this) is not complete memorization, but memorization with pattern recognition and logical deduction.

Memorization has its purpose, but it is not learning. Its a tool that is useful in learning, but it is no substitute. Memorization does not equal understanding - it answers the what, but not the why.

I have to say, when it came to Math, my favorite aspects were always logic and geometry - there was so much to UNDERSTAND, not so much to memorize. If there was an easy way to bring understanding to students... I guess that's the eternal struggle for teachers.

Free tacos for all!

No review planned? Why? :(

Ah, fracking vs frakking, I can see the dilemma.

Heheheheheh - yeah, some of the questions were poorly worded.

Thank you!

That's what I'm saying - a focus on memorization will NOT help in this regard.

Yes, but for it to work there needs to be SOME semblance of reality. I can suspend my disbelief only so far before all enjoyment is ruined.
