Re: Need more proof Dr. Al was right in Part I?
I'm sorry Tom, you must have missed a link out of your post.
I found the link to the story cancelling a spelling bee - adding one more small peice of anecdotal evidence indicating that US schools are deemphasising competition.
But I missed your link to anything proving the actual point of the article - namely that deemphasising competition in schools damages the competitiveness of the country as a whole.
Perhaps you could repost a link to that evidence?
