If CC hadn't done it on his own -- perhaps with the help of others who were not official credentiallers, or not acting for the moment in that capacity -- it's not clear how he ever *would* have done it. The school system does *not* teach critical thinking, though there is a certain meretricious playacting of it, and plenty of phony claims made about it.
