>>>>"Mr. X always shows up on time and dresses well."<<<< You mean there's more to teaching than that? [Spouse of one of the world's best teachers who shoulda "gone into The Private Sector."] Not really btw, if we don't start paying them half again as much, we aren't going to have any. 'Cept well-dressed ones. Ooops. Sorry.

> So what would you prefer. A brilliant yet absent minded professor who couldn't dress himself or a snappy dresser who couldn't compute a batting average.< I would certainly prefer the former. I guess what I didn't communicate well is that either type is unsuitable for those who aren't highly self motivated. The first type is a tremendous resource to those who are past needing the structure of lessons. The second type is oh-for-two. He obviously leads a structured life (witness the snappy dress) but fails in transferring that structure into a lesson plan. There is so much more to teaching than merely knowing.
