I Believe their is a big difference, between:
Ignorance  &  Stupidly

Ignorance = The lack of knowledge about a subject.
Like: “ I am ‘Ignorant’, on how to fly a 747 Airplane”
 So, I, hire someone that knows how,
and sit with the 100’s of other people,
that also hired that person/s, to fly that airplane.

Stupid =  Does NOT Have the, ‘ability', to Learn how to do something. Like the above example.

I do not believe I am ’stupid’, and if I took the years, the learning, the tests, to, fly a 747, I believe I could do that.

Same with, "What You Are Told".
Believe, what you are, 'told' to believe",
With OUT, finding out for YOURSELF!

Example, some people, 'believe', H. Clinton, is a 'honest', person.
Yet, if you went and, FOUND OUT YOURSELF, from the FACTS, of Past deeds. You would now, be, 'Informed'.

Another case in point; In 1969,  Men from the USA, landed on the Moon.
If, a person, watched, and listened;
You would have heard something like this:

LLM: 'Huston, we have a problem, computer is overloaded'
H:     "LLM, Abort,  I Repeat, Abort!"
LLM:  "Huston, Taking Manuel Control"
H:      "Abort, I say again, ABORT"
LLM:   "Huston, the LLM has Landed on the Moon".


ALL, you will hear today, is the LAST  Line !!!!!!!!

Go back to the late 70', early 80's,
and find a source, which has the,  REAL, recording of the events, that, REALLY, happened.

But, today, what, 'History', is taught ?
Not the TRUTH, but what, 'someone' ,wanted, or was told, what the, 'TRUTH, should be.

Here is a Sophomore in, COLLAGE.
Graduated from High School,
and does, NOT EVEN KNOW,
their is a Document, called:
"The Constitution Of the United States Of America"

Who is at fault?
The 'School', teacher, or the, 'Parents'?

BOTH !

But then, a,  NOT EDUCATED, (Or, Ignorant) person,
Votes !

I agree...to a point. Some people are just plain stupid. I work with a guy who is 57 years old and doesn't know his left from his right. Seriously. I've tried to teach him numerous things and EVERYTHING is over his head. There's another word for "ignorant to everything". It's called "stupid".  Wink

Permission to butt in...

"

Actually, to the best of my understanding, there was a "TV Room at NASA with a 30-second loop, so that whatever we could see on TV was never live but was from 30 seconds ago.
There was a guy ready to punch a big red "panic button" so that if anything nasty happened, "by chance and bad luck" the TV link with the Apollo Mission had just dropped.

In other words... if a big bad "Moon bug" was to jump out from under the moon sand and take a bite an an astronaut, WE would have never known...

AND it makes perfect sense...

So while I do believe  MnSpring's theory of the overloaded computer (it was a mere 8-bit machine) but other than finding the original magnetic tape...

Meps, it’s not a, ’Theory’.

In 1985, the office bought a New, State of the art Computer.
In it, was the, New, CD-ROM drive.
With it, was a set of 10 disks,
which was a, ‘Encyclopedia’, on disks.

On these disks, I heard, the transcript of, the overloaded, computer,
thus the reason, for taking, ‘manual’, control.
Today, if you look it up, it was, ‘rocks’ in the computer assigned landing area.

So, if you run across a set of early-mid 80’s, CD-ROM’s, which are a Encyclopedia.
You will probably hear the same thing.

As for a, ‘Broadcast’ Loop.
Still used today. (but not as much as the, ‘censors’, used them, for the 70-80’s, talk shows)

Thinking, a,   ’State of art’, Computer, in 1985,

That came with,   FREE,   ‘Encyclopedia’,  software.

How old, was that software,  (at is was, ‘Free’ with the Computer)?

Do ya think, it was,   “Really Cheep’, or considered, ‘Out of Date’.
to be, ‘FREE’. ??????

Perhaps, look for disks that were ‘ Very Early ‘, 80’s ?

Thank you,sir..
The quote I was responding to just required a little thought to accurately illuminate its weak points.
