<p>Well put Anne, but the problem is that people DO let fools drive the bus. To parody your grandfather's famous poem one of those fools could, if he had the necessary ability, write</p>
<p>I think that I shall never see<br>
A man who's cleverer than me<br>
I'll show I'm cleverest of all<br>
I'll build a great enormous wall.</p>
<p>For people who don't get this reference here is a wikipedia reference to the poem Anne's grandfather wrote.</p>
