school opportunity thinking
I don’t think people realise how vital libraries are or what a colossal danger it would be if we were to lose any more.

school thinking lasts
When I studied how to think in school, I was taught that the first rule of logic was that a thing cannot both be and not be at the same time and in the same respect.
