This thesis is not as much fun as i was hoping it would be. I tend to let ideas form in the back of my mind, behind a curtain to which my conscious mind cannot see. It's kind of like independently contracting your thinking to an outside source...that just happens to be inside your head. It's never really let me down, but it tends to work on its own schedule, so that means if there is a progressive set of assignments due that reflect steps taken to accomplish a future goal, the idea people are not necessarily accomadating to that. I only really contract for the concepts, the raw theoreticals and ideas, not the busy work, and the idea people do seem to take their sweet time before getting me the final product.

I still don't know what i'm writing about. Something to do with education, which is not the same as schooling, and the place of language, specifically well structured language, in education but not necessarily schooling, and its relation to thought, specifically thought which allows the thinker to advance toward some idea of the Better and the Worse, and through Reason to choose the Better (which is universal and general, not relative and particular), and to thus become a better person, which is not necessarily the same as intelligent, and only occasionally the same as knowledgeable, but closer to wise and to educated, which is not necessarily the same as one who has been schooled. Or something like that, they're still working on it.

A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it the superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom.
