Good point, Linda. I think the way 'knowledge' is often accessed (NB not 'acquired') nowadays leaves a lot to be desired. It's so easy to visit Wikipedia or some other site and find 'the answer'. Real knowledge is when you do 'acquire' it and you're able to use it in a different context. It's all about critical thinking.
