Bet you'd drive a car nearly as well as a old-time racing champion too, from all the practice you've got that they didn't have. I mean we've had decades of refining teachers's techniques of training kids to excel at answering short snappy quiz questions. You don't really suppose that we're actually a whole lot smarter today than they were a century ago, do you?
