- 345: Why Our Grading System Is Impo
- ... is altogether untrue. Working as a computer technician, I was informed by my employer that the most advantageous part of my application was my advanced level of high school classes and standardized math test scores.

Romans too needed some kind of symbols for their language, so they too used Phoenician letters, but via Greeks. Romans changed them how they wanted and created Latin; Greeks altered them their way and created Cyrillic. Though arrived from one common source, these two alphabets are considerably different from each other ...

- ... a corkscrew and finishes making supper. Richards grabs the first bottle and pops out the cork. He pulls out what seems to be a letter written by hand . Considering the conditions of the bottles the letters are still white, except for the contrasting black ink. He sets this letter to the side and opens up another bottle. He takes out another letter and sets it to the side. This process continues ... What do you make of these?" asks Richard. "I'm not sure what to make of them. I guess we will have to read them first," replies Chester. The two men begin to read the letters. What they learn is astonishing. As they read more they eyes open wider and wider.
