@FischerKing64 Teachers with life experience - invaluable. I recall a teacher telling us about flying biplanes in WWI (extensively used by Canadian pilots early in that war) and the gunners care to shoot between the rotating blades whether they flew in a biplane or an early fighter aeroplane

@ptkirchgraber @MedTwitThisWeek @AMWADoctors @AMWAStudents @AMWA_diversity Sorry, I cannot agree, unless the bed is unmade or untidy. What if your only good camera is a desktop computer and the bedroom is the only quiet spot? This comment sounds like only rich kids welcome to your school.
