It's what our kids are growing up learning.
It's certainly not what I'm learning.
You should know better Hyperspace. Tsk tsk.

I don't leave idle comments, so I'll just leave you to ponder my response.

'Better' is a comparative. Doesn't help when i have no idea what it's comparing to.
Are you arguing that public high-schoolers

Yes. Why?

Because usually arguments don't involve
ad hominem
statements. And when the whole of the argument is such a statement, it really isn't an argument.

Hmm? I simply asked you to read my mind. Go on, I'm sure you can see the argument I would make. ;)

Ummm...
Fayne is an accurate representation of American high-schoolers, therefore Hyperspacerebel is wrong?
The blog Hyperspacerebel linked was by a teacher and therefore biased.
I think, therefore HSR is wrong.
All of the above.

I honestly can't think of any other arguments against my position.
Americans are dumb.
We have set very low standards for ourselves, and I don't think it's fixable at this point.

Ough, this school looks like semi-hell to me. And the catholic church still doesn't recognize the Darwin theory? How can they explain that scientists have found the progenitors of modern humans?
Whatever, don't these guys look outside their village?
Being a tottally uninformed dumpass in the age of informations is a horrible crime if you ask me.

Every single one of them can perform the former. Most can perform the latter, aside from the fact that it's actually a technically difficult song if solo.
Hyperspace: People are stupid. Not Americans. Big difference there. And taking what looks like mainly cases out of specific regions and then saying "oh, well, that must apply to everyone" is a fallacy.

I can play the Star Spangled Banner on my instrument!
