Indeed rasoforos, I must agree with you. The overall level of education is falling dramatically AFAIK. That is why, all sciences try and find ways to attract students towards their subjects so that they can be taught and their servises put to good use. Frankly, it seems we haven't yet found a middle way, meaning we are either too strict, or way too "modern". Both are bad, with the latter an insult to Science itself.

ΜΕΤΡΟΝ ΑΡΙΣΤΟΝ (no, the "PAN" is a pleonasm )
