Tom...? about concepts and the average citizen.

Aly

So reading through all these posts lately has been an absolute joy for me. Nothing like being able to exercise my brain! But I do have some thoughts since you have talked about considering writing something for the average citizen. Your depth of knowledge is truly amazing (no I am not kissing ass) but that knowledge can be overwhelming for some.

There are those that have no background or original understanding of the concepts we have been discussing and would be absolutely lost. Now granted, it is not your job specifically to educate them (we all know we have discussed the education topic!) but how would you present these concepts so that they can understand? Then with this new understanding they would be able to get involved in discussions like we have been having and thus become more educated.

How are we helping the majority if only the minority understand?

Thanks!

Aly
