I went through the regular (non-SVS) school system and the regular
university system. In them I learned that the Theory of Relativity was
true. I learned that America was founded as a democracy. I learned that
Goedel had proved his famous Incompleteness Theorem. I learned that
central banks are controlled by the government of their country. 'Nuff
said.
