		<title>Should We Retreat? Should We Lower The Bar?  The Answer Is No.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am 27 years old - it's not my job to be political.  I can't even run for the presidency until I am at least 35 years old.  At my age, it's supposed to be my job to continue educating myself, to give to my fellow man in any way that I am able, and to continue growing my business so that I can afford to have a wife, so that I can start a family, so that we can, as a team, add to and benefit society. My job is not supposed to be to think for the government and do their jobs for them.  Nevertheless, I have already written one short proposal for <a title="Do We Really Need To Build Another School?" href="http://www.thinkarchimedes.com/2008/09/24/do-we-really-need-to-build-another-school/" target="_blank">how to intelligently modify the current broken school system</a>, and have provided some additional solutions in this piece.

		<title>Do We Really Need To Build Another School?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
A Logical Approach To A Big Question
Lately there has been a lot of discussion around town regarding the overcrowding of Wando High School.  I haven&#8217;t really heard any other ideas on how we might solve this problem other than to build another school, so I have taken it upon myself to think of at [...]]]></description>

Yes, it&#8217;s true*!  Through a few simple laws of Algebraic Rule we can now make this claim with 100% confidence**!  How you ask?  It is all quite simple:
Assumption #1: The first concept you have to understand is the Identity Property, which states that any number is equal to itself.

		<title>Number Types: Part Two: Zero &#8211; It&#8217;s just not Natural</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A large part of understanding mathematics is knowing what words mean. There’s no doubt about it, we even explain mathematics using plain ol’ English. I was reminded the other day that the same word can have different meanings to different people. In fact, while I may have an idea clear in my mind, I can [...]]]></description>

		<title>Numbers Types: Part One: Irrational Numbers Make Sense?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Think about what it means to be an irrational number:  its value cannot be expressed as the ratio of one whole number value to another, that is, it cannot be written as a fraction without using roots greater than 1.  Irrational, not a ratio.  We use irrational in common English to describe [...]]]></description>
