Of course not

You clearly haven't read your own thread.

Citation please? A YouTube video will do, as it's you.

Yeh, but there are plenty of other thickies like you on here.

I never use sarcasm.

I've heard that he's pretty good at colouring in and rarely goes over the lines.

What does the over-use of Youtube as a source of evidence say about someone?

I hope they have now come to appreciate the irony in their comment about Karren Brady, dismissing her piece in the papers about sexism in football.

If you combine the names "Mackail-Smith" you get Maskell. Read into that what you will.

Sounds to me like you have some self esteem issues you need to confront.

Since when have people listened to your mum about football rumours?

Yes, but it was very slow.

Only if they are on YouTube.

Thanks dune!

Thanks dune!

OK. Can we look at it on YouTube though? That way we don't have to worry about any in-depth analysis or citation.

But the point is they are discussing History. They are not making a sweeping statement that a degree means you are better in every area. In the subject of History, EVERYTHING we know comes from/via academia. Even first hand accounts and footage are directed through academia for authenticity. Just because you are embittered after doing a degree in something which you considered to be of little merit to you, try not to us this as a blueprint for your opinion on other areas of study. You talk about snobbery, yet you are the one making generalisations.

Are you really picking somebody else up on a misspelling? There goes the mote beam mechanism again.

Walcott should neer have left. He'd be twice the player he is today if he had stayed.

That doesn't answer the point I was making.

And where do you think they are getting this knowledge from in the books/museums/battle re-enactments/sites of archeological interest? Scholars. It all comes from academia, whether you like it or not.

We are all, obviously, in awe of Dune's knowledge of the world. But his knowledge is so vast that I am beginning to lose track. Can we use this thread to keep track of Dunes knowledge. I shall get the ball started: 1. Shares 2. Education 3. History 4. Maggie 5. Youtube (and how to embed)

But you're just naming people without degrees and saying that proves your point. Someone else could name successful people with degrees and say that proves the opposite. It doesn't prove anything. Now if you did a history degree you would learn all about proof and authentication, etc. Your post also proves that the why/how are important when talking about history and not just stating the who/what/when. You have stated the who/what/when and come to a conclusion which doesn't mean anything. But I suppose if you are happy with that conclusion, it just shows that education means nothing to you at all and thus I have no idea why you are posting on this thread.
