the importance of the ability to calculate and communicate are debatable only by people in total denial about how pervasive both are in our society. should those people really have any say in the curriculum of our children's future?


hm, that isn't what i said. You were ranking them relative to eachother and i said people might disagree on the relative rankings.

Those are two completely different arguments.
