Re: Hyndburnlite..Good/Bad News

Slightly off at a tangent here but I must say I agree with Prince Charles. Giving all children the idea that everyone can be a nuclear scientist regardless of ability is downright stupid.

By all means aspire to the best - as Donny Osmond's late mother said if you aim for the stars you might just reach the moon. The problem is that children of today are no longer content with the moon because they've been told they are all entitled to the stars.

It takes all sorts to make a world. We need shop assistants and road sweepers just as much as (and in Hyndburn's case, where the latter are concerned, definitely more than) brain surgeons and superstars - or e-envoys.
