OT I spent a lot of time in Banff, Jaspers and Willmore National Park. Jaspers was very rugged and real beautiful. Banff was rugged mountains too but it was very commercial with a lot of people when you got off the trails at the campgrounds. I went further North to Jaspers and spent more time on the trails there. Lots of wild life. Very few tourists. I also went further North past Edmonton to some of the great lakes: Flat Lake, Frog Lake, Cold Lake and there are a few others up there. All I can say is if you haven't been to the Canadian Rockies, you haven't seen the real Rocky Mountains. I don't remember Paradise Lake; but I may have been there. I also went to Watertown Lakes National Park in the South. I've read alot of Thomas Sowell because I subscribed to Forbes for about 15 years. He is much better than Bush or Gore on education. I think a teacher can use the world of the students to his advantage in regard to each of the subjects. I just gave one example. As to possible reasons why the best minds in the US don't go into public school teaching: Message 14630233
