# Hehehe.
I must admit, I'm doing a BSc Computer Networks course. I'm in the second year, but the stupidity of many of the other candidates (I don't say students for a reason) astounds me. And some of the lecturers are even worse.

# at school
My teacher rapped on the case of the BBC (yep, it was that long ago) and said "This is hardware, and this"... (bending a floppy disk.. yes they were really floppy back then) .. "is software".

Stupidly, I corrected him and was made to stand outside in the corridor waiting for the headmaster to do his rounds.

So, yep, being a teacher doesn't always mean you know what you're doing.

# Patronising git!
I know, I'm not that young! Besides, you can't see me insult you now, this is in the spazz! :-P

Being a precocious little shit, I have had the misfortune of correcting my IT teachers on many occasions... Once I was in the 6th form, I stepped up a gear - and corrected the spelling mistakes my Head of Sixth Form made on a handout she gave us, using a red pen.

# sorry
didn't mean to be patronising to you... just mocking myself for being (nearly) old.

# Hehe,
didn't mean it. I'm 21, but BBCs were still quite new when I got into computers... at the age of 5.
